Campin' 2011

We went camping this week for our annual family camp-out.  We camped in Midway at the Wasatch State Park.  For a day-trip we went hiking at Cascade Springs.  It was an easy hike to the springs with waterfalls on the way. 

Hiking Cascade Springs.

We saw a few fish swimming around.


Max's slogan should read:  "If there is dirt, he will come."  It seems that no matter where we go, he can always find the dirt.

The traditional hot dog roast.

Sam ate his hot dog right off the stick.

After dinner we went on another hike around the campground.  This is Pine Creek.

The kids had to go in search of big rocks to throw into the creek.


Max loved the self-serve water spout.

All ready for bed.

Chilling around another campfire the next morning.

After cleaning up camp, we drove to Deer Creek Resorvoir and spent the day.  The kids had a ton of fun playing in the sand and water.



It was hillarious that while we were camping, Max kept yelling that he wanted to go camping.  I don't know what they think camping is, but it must be different than what we did.  There was a squirl roaming the campground before we left on our hike.  The kids were worried about leaving our tent, so we told them that the squirl would watch it for us.  So they named the squirl "fluffy tail" and talked about him the whole trip.  It is amazing at much fun the kids are getting to be.
