Camping Trip

My sister in law has family who owns property near Lava Hot Springs. W were lucky enough to camp at this awesome site, with lots of room, covered pavilion and lots of picnic tables. We had a blast, which is saying a lot for someone (me) who HATES camping!


Dawson's favorite part of camping was eating, and trying to eat everyone's food. When I took this picture, he realized he was busted!

Dave spent lots of time at this cute pond fishing with the boys. Landon loves fishing, it's one of his passions in life.






While fishing we stumbled upon this fun rope swing. Dave even tried it, but got nervous when he could literally hear the rope breaking... Didn't stop the rest of us!

The kids taking a whack at the Uncle Robert Pinata! I swear my brother will climb anything!

Landon had tons and tons of fun playing with all his cousins. They were constantly inventing games and creating masterpieces. This rock (or as Landon calls it, an ancient dinosaur skull) was so heavy! They had to collect it for their "Paleontology Museum."


The museum. He wanted to charge people to walk through it, but we nixed that idea pretty quick!

Dawson spent most of his time harrassing my mom and my sisters puppies. Poor dogs.

Moose we found on one of our nature drives.



My family is crazy, and I love it most the time. Except when I try to get a nice picture and I have not one, but three brothers in law try to ruin it. So many ruined pictures because of them!

While we were in town at Lava shopping, my dad found some fake gold bubblegum. He thought it would be funny to bury it and have the kids find it. Once they started finding it, they were so excited!!! Landon was even throwing out all the things he was going to buy. To say he was ticked off when he found out it was fake is an understatement.






Thanks, Kari for a fun time! We're excited for next year!

The funniest part about that gold was when I told Landon he had to bite it to see if it was real or not. He bit it and through it, he was SO mad and disgusted. He thought he had found someone's ABC gum!
