Ward Campout!

On Friday after we dropped Steve and Kristal at the Airport we went back home and got things packed up for the Camping trip. I was pretty tired and decided that it would be a great Father and Sons camping trip so I helped them pack up and Sophia and I stayed home. In hind sight we are so glad we did. It rained, no maybe poured is a better word, the whole night!
The boys had so much fun, even in the rain. Daniel slept in his tent inside Daddy's tent and James slept on the air mattress by Sterling. They stayed dry ~ mostly!

The ward had all kinds of things planned for Saturday Morning, but most people had already packed up and left by the time the boys got up around 7:00am. Sterling said people started packing up around 4:00am because it was just too wet and sleeping was pretty difficult. Daniel and James had a great time playing in the water and puddles!

If there is a stick to be found.. Daniel will find it!
The boys were home before 9:00am and the house was littered with drying sleeping bags and the garage was the drying place for the monster tent!
Next time we will be sure to check the weather forecast BEFORE the campout!



This is a view of all the waterfalls as Sterling drove home on H3!



It looks pretty amazing with all the waterfalls. There were over 100 waterfalls!
Pretty amazing!
