Camping up High Creek

For the 24th we went camping up High Creek. We love camping here. We did a couple of fun activities with the kids that I wanted to share. Brian and Melissa brought a Pinata. It was so fun to watch the kids try to hit it, especially the younger ones.









Later we made zucchini boats. It is so messy but lots of fun. Jamie made flags for the boats.





















In Riley’s preschool class at North Park he made a backpack out of a brown grocery sack. We all thought it was such a cute idea that we decided to make them up camping. I think they turned out really cute.









After we made the bags we had the kids go on a scavenger hunt for things around the campground. Once they found the items we had prizes for them. We all pitched in and got toys from the dollar store. I am so glad that we are able to do fun things with our families.

Trip to Ogden

While we were in Ogden visiting Garry we were able to do a couple of fun things. First we met Brad and Alyson at Dinosaur Park. I think the kids had lots of fun. We had Brody for a little bit and Ashlyn loved having him along. Riley loved the Dinosaurs. He was so upset when he couldn’t see a real dinosaur.









Steve’s cousin Brenda told us about a park where the kids could play and get wet. The best part about it was that it was free. The directions that she gave us were crazy. I don’t know how we found it but we did and the kids had so much fun. Now we just need one of these in Cache Valley.

The “Condo”

The kids wanted a sandbox so Steve decided to build them a play hut. I thought it would be a little hut for the kids to play in but Steve had other ideas. He told me he wanted it to be sheet rocked, painted, carpeted, and have power to it. I nicknamed it the “Condo”. I was worried at first but he did an awesome job with it. (Currently it has no power.
