A Camping We Will Go!

This weekend we finally broke out the camp trailer and went on our annual camping trip up American Fork Canyon with our friends, the Jensen's. Mike decided to work from home Friday morning so he could help get us ready and boy did it help. It helped so much, we were up there a few hours sooner than we normally are. It was rush, rush, rush but once we got there and got set up it turned to a total calmness. Mike even told me (though he won't admit it), "Thanks for bringing us up here."  We set up camp, then went for a walk then we met up with our friends for some play time and later again to roast marshmallow's and visit.
Saturday morning, the Jensen's ran home and picked up their Rhino UTV and we all went up to Silver Lake and had a picnic lunch, looked at the lake and went for a couple short rides. The boys loved it. Then it was back to camp for more playing, visiting and of course more marshmallows! Caleb and I even stayed up and caught a glimpse of the Super moon. It was a really good time, even if the battery went dead on the trailer so we froze at night with no heater. But we are tough and can handle it.
This morning we packed up and headed down right after sunrise so we could get everything put away and start all the chores we weren't here to do over the weekend. I always love camping, but I think I love that first shower after camping even more.

Here are a few pics of the fun and the beautiful Utah area.
