{camping}

We enjoyed our first camping trip of the season this past weekend. We went up beautiful American Fork canyon and enjoyed a couple of relaxing days with our friends, Matt, Shaunte & Carter. Jace loved being outside all day and all night. After a couple of hard falls off the picnic bench the first night he was accident free the rest of the time. We took his bike (trike) and moto (four wheeler) up for him to ride on the paved path by our campsite. He would ride down the hill then go back up and do it again. He liked his bike better because it would go faster (the four wheeler only goes 2 mph). He had a great time playing with Carter and throwing rocks into the river.

Shaunte and I tried out my dutch oven for the first time and were pleasantly surprised at how good we did. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Anyway, the days were warm and the nights were cold. The first night we figured out we had a whole in our air mattress when about half way through the night we woke up with rocks in our backs. Good thing we were only 20 minutes from civilization so Jared could run get us a patch.

It was great way to start off the summer. We are looking forward to a few more camping trips and lots of summer fun. Here are a few pictures for your viewing pleasure.
