Camping June 2011

We took Jordan camping for the first time this past Friday. We had a ward camp out at Diamond Fork near Spanish Fork. We had a great time and loved being in the great outdoors.

The campground. Our tent (if you can see it) is the green and orange one. Our ward put together quit the event with delicious meals and lots of fun games. It was good times all around.

One of my favorite things about camping is roasting marshmallows over the fire and making smores. Mmmmm... delicious. P.S. I found out that those really big marshmallows don't roast very well. What a bummer... they looked so promising, but the fact is they're just too big to get melted all the way through. That's what I get for being greedy.

Good morning boys. Preston and Jordan cuddled up close together after an adventurous night. Jordan went down to bed like a champ at 8:00 pm, while hanging out with friends by the fire we heard Jordan around 11:30 pm, he went back down well after getting over freaking out about not being in his crib, and after that he woke up at 3:00 am. From then on it was a game of trying to keep him asleep till morning. It was worse then when he was a newborn! Oh well, camping's always an adventure right?

It was a beautiful spot! We love camping and so enjoyed being out in it. The weather was awesome and everything is especially green this year with all the rain we've had here in Utah.

The ending result of the camp out was one tired little guy... Not to mention his tired parents who didn't get much sleep the night before. Maybe we'll wait till he's a bit older for our next camping adventure. Day hikes are sounding pretty good to me.

  1. I wish I could have been there to have a story along with yours. We've been wanting to go camping, but haven't been as brave as you. Good job for even being willing! Cute pictures!
