Ward Campout











Last weekend was our ward campout up in Hobble Creek Canyon. It was so pretty up there, and not even that cold. We had fun roasting our hot dogs over the fire (gross) and of course marshmallows too. Cooper and Jeff stayed over night in the tent, and I took Parker home to sleep in our warm, cozy beds. I do like camping, but not with a 20 month old. So, the next morning when they got home, Cooper started telling me how he got lost and ended up in another campground and was crying. Jeff swears he was exaggerating, but I highly doubt it. Jeffs excuse was "I was making breakfast, and he went hiking with the other kids" .....Ahhhh! Why can't dads be as paranoid as moms are? (Oh, and Cooper wasn't really mad in that last picture, he just thought it would be funny to make that face)

CATCHING UP!
















I've been such a blog slacker lately, and this post proves it. This is the 24th of July parade that the primary puts on in our city. Every ward decorates a float and rides bikes, it's pretty exciting for the kids. I think our theme had something to do with rodeo? I'm lucky that we found this old cowboy hat in our toy box...I know, I go all out. Cooper (who just learned how to ride a bike w/out training wheels did amazing riding it the entire parade with Jeff behind him to slow his bike down when he got to a hill (he hadn't quite mastered the brakes yet). It was a fun day!
