Two weekends ago now, we went camping with our good friends the Schultz. Emily and Jenna are the best of friends. 
The girls were prepared for when the sun went down and the chill came upon us.
Maddie loves camping. She was the most excited one of all of us.
Once we got the tent up Brayden was quite content to play in there.
Maddie was trying to help her dad with the dutch oven cooking.

Maddie was trying to help her dad with the dutch oven cooking.Saturday morning we all went on a little hike.
We had streams to cross via a log.
Massive tree trunks to walk around or climb over as the kids preferred.
A humongus Beaver Dam to walk over.
More streams to cross.
Brayden had the best spot on our little journey.
All our hard work paid off. We ended at the most beautiful spot ever! A rather large pond for eveyone to play in. We started with the daddies showing us how to skip rocks.
She throws like a girl!
Brayden was content to sit next to the water, splash with his hands and toes, watch the crazy kids around him and eat rocks!
We started off like this..
Once one got in they all had to follow..
We had our own private beach so why not swim in our undies?
This was just too cute not to post. Wading in our panties and rain boots!
After our hike Brayden snoozed in the great fresh outdoors under the shade of a lawn chair.
These 2 pretty girls picked wild flowers for their mama's.
There was plenty of dirt to dig and haul away in a little pick up truck.
We camped in a field full of Lady Bugs!

The creek of course was the best part for the kids.
The water was so clean and definetly lives up to the name of "Clear Creek".
Not knowing before hand we attended a Ward Campout here about 3 years ago and had a blast then.
I've always wanted to go back and am so glad we had another opportunity to see this beautiful spot again.
The best part of this wonderful destination is that it's close enough to home that we can come again for a day trip.
We can't wait to go back!

oh, how I miss camping in AZ! Looks like you had a great time!
I can't believe its warm enough to camp. We've had some strange cold days lately. Sunday was really cold. Then the past few days have been really warm. we're told another "cool down" & High winds are headed our way. I wouldn't dare camp yet. We are reserved to camp at Mt. Charleston on Memorial which I'm a little concerned about doing with a brand new baby!?
