We spent last weekend camping together at Mt. Charleston. I took the boys all by myself. I don't know if that's what you would call brave or..................dumb?! Whatever the case we had a great time and had so much fun together. But I'm not gonna lie, it was a ton of work! Have you ever put up a shade tent by yourself? Wait I had the help of a 5 yr old and a 3 yr old.....yep it was pretty much me doing it by myself!! :) The campers next to us came over when I was packing up the car to leave and they told me how they saw my boys helping so much and what great workers they are. I had to laugh... I said of course they help! I'm mean! And they're the only one's here to help! I kept making them hold poles or hammer stakes. Give a boy a hammer and they are in heaven. It's funny though because I felt like I spent all of Saturday setting everything up and then all of Sunday taking it down!!!
We played catch, did puzzles, played games, cooked on the fire, roasted marshmallows, and drank hot chocolate. I think Wyatt lived off of Cheetos all weekend. No foil dinner for him!
Connor took us on two hikes and he loved it. While hiking, we met another family and there was a single mom with two kids... I think she was LDS and it was fun to talk to her. The people we camped next to gave me their number so we could all go camping together again. :) I love how lucky I am to alway bump into cool people. I love that and I don't think it's an accident.
To my mom: Sorry for giving you a heart attack by going camping alone. We are home safe and had a great time! No worries!
We were bursting at the seams and we used everything we brought. Can't believe it takes so much stuff to go camping!
I love how I wanted the shade to be over the table, but by the time I was done, it was like half over the table and sagging on one side!!!! I'm only one person people! Whatever works.
My camera battery died and I think it's because Connor took so many pictures of "scenery" and of himself. I had 10 pics of his head like the one above!!! ha ha!
