Camping

This past weekend we went camping with my Dad up to Wasatch in Midway! My family has gone camping every year for as long as I can remember. But this isn't just normal camping. Its pack as much fun in as we can! And we had no problem doing so.

We went to Park City and rode the Alpine Slides. It was freezing so no one was there. We got right on, no waiting, and rode right down!
I couldn't go fast enough for Tai!
The whole way down, Parker had his arms up yelling "To Infinity and Beyond" He is a little obsessed with Buzz and Woody right now.

I gave up on rules with eating when we camp. So this is Parker eating Nerds candy for breakfast.



Makenzie was sooo good the entire time. All 3 kids slept through the night all 3 nights. It was freezing cold, but we had a space heater and snuggly sleeper jammies. She fell asleep around 10 and would sleep till 5 or 6. She woke up so happy every morning. I told Lance I was afraid we would have to live in in a tent on the mountains just so our kids would sleep good.



Our growing family- eating and relaxing!! There are 15 of us now and still growing!!!


Grandpa and Tai putting a toy together in the rain!


It was cold and rainy on Sat so we went into Heber and had our first bowling tournament. Dad, Lance and Tony really got into it and picked teams. This is Tai's first STRIKE!!!

This means Strike, in case you didn't know : )

After we all bowled 2 games. Lance, Tony, Chad, Ross and Jonathan had a game of their own. It was so fun to watch. ALL of them either hit a spare or strike everytime. But as you can see, my hubby beat them all!

Makenzie just chillin wherever she was dragged to. Doesn't she look thrilled to be there!
Wasatch golf course is one of our favorite courses, and about a minute away from where we were camping, so a bunch of us woke up bright and early and played 18. Tai and I only lasted 9 holes but it was still fun. It was freezing cold up in those mountains!


Taking a Snicker break!!
These four have had an ongoing scramble for over a year now. Lance and Chad just keep beating them, so it never ends. Tony and Ross cant stand too lose! I think its hilarious!!
They are all so good, and fun to watch!
My little athletic boy! Finally old enough to go with the guys. Still a little hard to stay quiet when someone is hitting, but what do you expect from a boy like Tai!!
It was freezing cold and Dad's tent got soaked in the rain, we had too much food, and hyper kids hopped up on sugar, but how much fun is it to make all those memories!? My Dad is the best and always makes sure his kids have a good time. I have a million of those great memories, and I hope I don't get too burnt out to make some more for my kids.

It was so good to see you and Makenzie! I'm glad we were able to visit too. It's so nice knowing someone else is in the same boat as me with 3 kids. :) have a great day, and we'll have you over soon!
