Labor Day Camp

This year for Labor Day Weekend we spent it in Bear Lake with my family and our good friends The Blacks.  We left Layton on Friday morning and got to camp around 1:00 pm.  We got set up and had dinner and a fire where the marshmellows were roasted and just visited with each other. 

 Here is Jaci, Sidney, Trevor and Darren... We were just hanging out by the fire Friday night.  We had a great time just enjoying everyone's company.

 Here is Rick and Justin talking about who knows what.. they just kept yelling at me cuz the flash was so bright... lol

Here is Allen, Alexx, Sylvie (under the covers) and Dally their doggy... Allen said the flash was so bright he had to close his eyes... Oops sorry bout that guys!

Saturday we headed to the lake to play... Here is Sylvie playing in the sand..

Here is Curtis and Sidney playing in the water.

Me hanging out in the shade... didn't want to get burned, Oh and the hat I'm wearing is from my friend Mary Beth... who gave it to me so I could take her every where with me... lol!

Murranda, Rick and Justin hanging out watching the kids play!

Peyton playing in the Water... the water was a little chilly that day but it didn't seem to bother the kids much.

Here is Jordan, Peyton, Sid, Morgan and Makayla... just hanging out in the water...

Sunday we took the kids up to Minnetonka Cave,  Curtis and Kenzie, and The Blacks came with us. 

Jordan, Rick, Makayla, and Murranda Black

Curtis and Kenzie.... One thing you should know is that in the cave there are 444 stairs each way for a total count of 888... Kenzie is 5 years old and walked the entire time... she climbed all 888 stairs with out complaining once!  She was also one of the first to spot a Bat flying around... girl has some skills!

Jordan, Chance, Peyton, Kelcee, Kenzie, Brykale, Makayla.... They all enjoyed the cave...

In the cave there is one formation that is "dead" due to the people touching... the oils in your hand causes the water to run off rather than collect on the formation so this is one they let you touch just to see what it feels like... Here is Kenzie touching the formation...

Here is Peyton... she needed a small lift from Uncle Curtis... Thank goodness Curtis was there to give us a full tour of the cave... our tour guide wasn't as thorough as I would have hoped.

When we got back to camp, Grandpa and Trevor had just returned from a short horse ride and now were letting everyone take a small ride... Here is Makayla and Moody, Kelcee and Compte and Grandpa leading the way.  I don't think the girls smiles could get any bigger..

Here is me, Peyton and Moody.. Chance and Compte are behind us.  Peyton was "driving"  she wouldn't let me touch the reins cuz she wanted to drive.  She loves riding horses as much as I do! 

Justin even took a turn... He is riding Compte while Peyton and I are riding Moody... notice who is "driving" again... yes she wouldn't let me touch the reins at all!

This picture broke my heart... here is Kelcee and Makayla saying their goodbyes to Keno... We miss you Keno!

Here is Peyton, Chance and Kelcee... One last hug before we had to leave him behind... We loved our Keno and will forever miss him.

Chance... one last Hug!

Kelcee... one final hug!

Peyton giving one last hug....

Me and my Keno... he was my very first dog I could call my own.  Miss him!

When we got home we found this in our drive way... Someone had shrink wrapped our Piece of Crap car... If you ask me the shrink wrapped added value to it. Later we found out the culprits... Thanks Brynlee and Teighlor for our wonderful present. 

We had a wonderful time with all who were there with us that weekend.  Rick fit right in with the boys in the family as he is always picking on me but... it was all fun!  I cannot wait to go again.
