Camping 2010

Our family at the Provo River Falls

Due to a busy summer and the crazy schedule of our family we were only able to go camping for one night. That's a lot of stuff to pack up there for one night but it was worth it.
Paul actually got up there a day earlier than the rest of us which is a total switch. His brother and nephews went up on Wed and then Paul joined them on Thur. We had to wait for Brooke to be done with volleyball practice and Taylor to go to 7th grade orientation and then we left on Friday afternoon.

Its good to see a smile on Taylor's face. He REALLY did NOT want to come with us. He said it wasn't worth it to go for just one night. We had to physically put him in the car and make him come. (I think the real reason he didn't want to come was because he was missing a party with some school friends)

this is what Justin did a lot of the time

even though we were only there for about 28 hours

this pose was Jared's idea - future model ??

these two kids love their big sister

I think we have a picture like this from every camping trip

we've ever gone on up to Washington Lake.

Paul stays the same, its just different kids with him.

We had a great time sitting around the campfire and roasting starbursts. Paul's nephew, Jake, who is Taylor's age, did a great job entertaining us.

We can hardly wait to go again next year - but for a lot longer!

** Post Edit - So to explain, the Provo River Falls are on the Mirror Lake Highway, just below Washington and Trial Lakes (not really anywhere near Provo). We camped at Washington Lake, its the only place we ever go camping, we love it that much!
