Camping



Last weekend we loaded up the car and headed up North to enjoy a weekend in the woods with some of our best friends!!

The 4 of us left Friday morning and were on a mission to find a perfect camping spot.  We usually go up to Woods Canyon to camp but when we got there we quickly realized there would be no camping there because it was covered in snow!!  Tatum and Camdyn had never been to the snow before so we took a little bit of time to let them experience a bit of snow in their shorts and sandels!!




Then we were back into the truck to find a spot to camp.  We drove down and checked out a campground but they wanted too much money so we kept searching.  We turned off the road and then really turned off the road and after getting almost stuck in the mud having to use 4 wheel drive to get out of there we decided we better head back down a little bit.  We ended up camping at the Christopher Creek campground and it worked perfectly.  We got 2 sites and got the tents set up right away and went off to the Creek to check it out.

More of our crew got there about dinner time and we made hot dogs and burgers by the fire for dinner.  Tatum got to make a s'more before bed, lucky girl!!  It was pretty cold the first night and Camdyn did not sleep well.  She was snuggled up with her Daddy half the night in his sleeping bag.  Luckily Tatum slept great!!

Saturday morning the Ekrens got there and our camping crew was complete.  We spent the day enjoying the weather, playing horseshoes, golfing, chopping wood and going on a nature hike.  It really was a great day and the girls had so much fun exploring and getting SUPER dirty!!

Sunday morning we got up and closed up camp and fit in one more game of horseshoes where Matt and Marcus were still the champions!!  We are so happy we got to have a super fun weekend of camping and that our girls had such a great time!!
