Happy Campers

This last weekend was our first weekend without Cj and Di...we needed to do something awesome so it wouldn't feel so lonely without them! :) We went on a Camp out up Payson Canyon! Olivia had sooo much fun and got so dirty she looked like a little black kid! We didn't encounter any bears but we did have a bazillion cattle around us. We set up camp in an area that they are used to walking through so they would stand at the edge of our camp and just "MOOOOOOOO". Luckily the Dogs were with us and were in pure elation to be able to chase the cattle out of sight! Everyone had so much fun! We even cooked our own breakfast, something we are going to have to get used to with CJ not around! :) haha. Olivia loved sleeping in the tent and getting super dirty. She also loved eating s'mores and playing with her friends 24/7. She also successfully did several #1's and #2's in the woods while we were there, and thought she was pretty cool because of it! Geesh Potty training is a breeze in the woods!
Melina and I
Who's that Dirty kid?

"look mom, i'm making soup!!"
Cohen managed to stay pretty clean the whole time...??

Cohen and Jess
Barton was the favorite over the weekend, what a ladies man.
"AGAIN, AGAIN!!!"
The ladies (why does Melina look like a supermodel and we look like we are dying. Maybe it is the ray of sunshine that is only shining on her, and we are in her shadow.....God loves her.
Olivia LOVED playing with Sam. This little girl was in fact ONLY 2 weeks older than Liv...Either Olive is Tiny or Sam is Gigantic??!
They were so cute playing together!

Paul, Cohen and Jess
Colton, Brynn and Olivia

Our small hike to the Grotto There was lots of these cool bridges...the kids loved testing their balancing skillz.
