If there's one thing I love about summer, it's escaping to the mountains for a few days here and there. With little girl on the way, we won't be able to make it as much this year (Mike is jumping for joy) but we did make it at least this one time to camp with some friends at Granite Flats campground. The weather couldn't have been more perfect all weekend and the kids were loving it. They even stopped to pose for a few pictures the first night in our site with hardly any prodding.
They were super excited that we put up our "house" to sleep in and it had it's own door they could go in and out of a million times.
We tried out some new
marshmallows I found at the store called
stackers from jet puffed. They are basically flat and made just for
smores. I have to say, they worked out pretty good. This
smore right here, was amazing.
The boys thought that Mom roasting some hot dogs the first night was the best thing ever, so of course they wouldn't eat the yummy dinner Mom made the next night and had to roast their own
hot dogs. I have to say it was pretty cute.
All in all, it was a pretty good trip. We had a rough time getting out of there this morning after we got it all cleaned up. The wheel prop on the trailer broke it's bolt, the kids played in the truck while we put down the tent trailer and managed to flood it which delayed our leave time and we noticed a brand new crack in the passenger side of the
Durango windshield that wasn't there before we left. Thank goodness we were camping with a friend that knows how to fix stuff and was able to help us out before we left. But even with all that aside, at least 4 of the 5 of us had an awesome time. Mike is just going to have to keep indulging us for years to come I'm afraid. Caleb is already saying he is asking Santa for his own camping stuff this year.....That's my boy!
