Ward Campout

We spent a few days down at Laurel Hill camping with friends from the ward. E had all kinds of things to keep her busy, Lucy of course was crazy and did all she could to run away from us, and there was tons of good company and food.

 While I was at Girl's Camp, we did this easy "waterfall hike" and I thought it would be perfect to take the girls on when we went camping.  Lucy girl walked a good amount of it.

 We went with a few other families. Caitlin giving us two thumbs up at the very top of the waterfall!

Getting ready to walk across

 Lucy was one happy girl. She wanted to get right in the freezing cold water.

 

 We had to keep a tight grip on her or she would of jumped right in.

 I knew this was going to happen. Anytime she is near water, she sticks her head in, this was no exception. I worried the whole trip about her getting sick from the water.  (which she did)

 Elsa May was a little more cautious about the water. She enjoyed watching everyone and

poking around the water with sticks

 Alex took Lucy on a little adventure out to the falls. Not sure she liked it a whole lot!

 Lucy loved climbing up and down all the rocks.

 A big group got together and went down to the lake.

This girl was out on the way back from the lake.

 We had a big potluck with everyone that came. We  had more meat of every kind then we knew what to do with (thank you Aitchisons).

 There were also many yummy dutch oven meals & desserts

 We had amazing weather the whole trip until we were packing up and then it poured. E played in the rain and mud and was loved it.

 I am still amazed I was able to get all the mud out of her pants!
