Labor Day

We went on our annual "camping trip". We have been doing it for 6 years now and we camp with 5 other families. We all have kids about the same ages and so it's a fun time to be together. There are only 2 families left in the Clearfield Ward, the rest of us have moved. We want to keep up the tradition though!! Our original reservation did not work out so we ended up camping at the Percival's. The adults were on beds in the house and the kids camped in the back yard. We left on Friday night. We had dinner and just caught up with everything that we all have been doing.

On Saturday we went to the Farmer's Market, the American West Heritage Center (it was the last day and it seemed like they were shutting down), and then to the Hyrum Dam. We had a canooe and a wave runner that we all had fun riding. The kids of course had a great time in the muddy water. At night it's tradition to go out for pizza so we went to Firehouse Pizza. We came home afterwards because Casey had church duties on Sunday.

We went back up on Sunday night, we had already eaten dinner but they had not so we ate a little again. We were camping so calories don't count!

Monday we got up really late (9:00am). We went to bed late so we were all really tired. We were supposed to meet Z and my parents but since we got up so late and still had to make breakfast and clean up, we told them to go ahead and go without us and we would meet them later. Well, they misunderstood what I said and they were waiting for us, while we took our sweet old time. Then Papi called and said that since it was so late, that we didn't need to come so we went to the park and rode the canooe a little longer. Sometimes we try to fit too much into one day and we love being with family but also we friends. We just kind of hung out at the park and talked. Sometimes it's nice to just relax. Then we drove home and made steak tacos (since we could not find a stand).

Pictures coming soon!
