Deer Hunt/Camping


We thought we would join Matt this past weekend and camp with him, while he was also getting some deer hunting in. We all went up Friday night and stayed the night. It was a little chilly outside, but if you were by the fire it was nice. The camper was nice and warm because our heater works awesome! 

We went up Logan Canyon and met some friends up there....the Olsens, the Thatchers and Nate Daugs Family! The kids absolutely love camping! They love playing in the camper, they love the fire, they love exploring and going on hikes, they love the junk food, and they love the four wheeler rides. They  just love it and their clothes also show it! 

Crew was obsessed with putting wood in the fire, which was stressing me out. We had to watch him pretty good around the fire. We all slept really good that night, probably the best I have slept camping in a really long time! The next morning, we all just sat around the fire and ate breakfast and waited for the sun to come up over the mountain and get us warm.  The kids then waited for the dads to come back from early morning hunting. So they explored and played and we all just sat around and talked and kept our kids from getting hurt. The kids also had turns on the ponies.They all went for a hike. They played by the river. And we took a few short 4-wheeler rides. We also managed to fit in some board games! I stayed till about noon and then took the two little boys home. They were pretty sad, but Matt was going to take the older two hunting/hiking with him that night and couldn't watch the little boys! So I took them home and Matt and Corey and Cade slept over another night. I had to be home to teach church class the next morning, so I had to go home. Plus I was really excited to shower and sleep in a nice soft bed! They didn't see much up there that weekend. But I did see a few smaller ones close to our house!

I really do love camping, but it is a little bit more enjoyable when it is not so cold! My kids want to go up again, but it will probably be the last camp of the season!

Looks like fun If I would have known all the wives were going I might have came up- but my kids had such a great time and it was so good for them to make fun memories with Nate
