Yankee Meadows

Oh, my poor, neglected blog. I've got to do a better job at posting. I recently read Stephanie Nielson's, Heaven is Here, and she talks about starting her blog when she moved to New Jersey with her husband. She would get so excited about each post, and would check multiple times a day to read all the new comments she was receiving. Those were the good old days of blogging. Now that everyone's moved on to Facebook and Instagram (myself included), blogging has really been left behind. But I do love to look back at everything that was going on in our lives, so I have decided that I'm going to try to blog once a week. That should be doable. 

A couple weekends ago, we went down to Yankee Meadows to go camping. Just a few minutes from Brian Head, it was a good meeting place between Orem and Las Vegas for a family campout.  My parents, Pat and Heather's family, and the Alofipo's were all planning to go. At the last minute, Wayne's dad died and they couldn't make it, but the rest of us went on without them. 

The kids had a BLAST with their cousins!

Heather was nice enough to let Kyla do her makeup.

The kids thought a dip in the lake would feel nice. They were only in for a few seconds before they took off for the warmth of this tree trunk.

McKay, Carter and Beckett formed the "little boys club," and their motto must have been "get dirty," because that's what they did. One night they took a bag of chips into their tent. We should have known that was a bad idea, but we were busy singing songs around the campfire and playing games. We'll know better next time...

Fun times everyone! Let's do it again!
