This past Saturday, we went camping with the Gabrish family up to Mantua. I was worried about being out in the sun all day. It was packed up there, so we didn't get the spot that had lots of shade, but it ended up being just fine. We just made sure to stay in the shade made by the trailers and the kids were in and out of the little trees!
On Saturday, we pulled the trailer and the four-wheelers up to our spot and then got things set up and organized by 1. We ate lunch and then took a little ride down to the creek to let the kids play and cool down. Cooper, Reese, and Jaxson had a great time exploring down the creek bed. The rocks were slippery, but the water wasn't deep at all.
Landon and Clayton spent their time throwing rocks into the water. The water wasn't too cold and I even hung the kids up side down and dipped their heads in the water. It was a perfect spot to have a little shade and let the kids play in the water.
Later that night, Bekka and Ryan came up to eat dinner with us and hang out. The men went and gathered firewood and we started roasting hotdogs over the fire for the kids. Dinner was great. For some reason, it doesn't matter what you are eating, the food is always good when you are camping. The roasted hotdogs hit the spot and Bekka surprised us with some awesome 5 layer dip, a cheese ball, and cookies!
At 8 pm, Bryce set up his projector and screen to put a movie on for the kids. Then all the guys took off on the 4-wheelers and headed up to Inspiration Point. I wasn't thrilled that they decided to ride up there in the dark, but they made it back safely and they had a great time!
We spent most of Saturday on the 4-wheelers with the boys! Clayton wanted to be on it the entire day! He looked so cute in his little bike helmet. If Bryce or I took one of our hands off the handle bar, he would motion for us to put it back on!
While we were cleaning up from dinner, Reese and Cooper thought it would be funny to cover themselves completely in dirt. When they came around the corner, they started laughing and they looked like aboriginees! I had to take them up the spring (snow runoff and freezing) to wash them off before bed.
