Family Camping

This last weekend we went out to Sawmill Canyon with the Littlewoods for Connors last weekend at home.

 By the time I got off work and Friday, and we got the trailer packed and functioning in Shelley we didn't pull into the campsite until 11:30 that night. Luckily Pres took a energy drink to keep him awake because by the time we got half way there I was out like a light. We just left everything hooked to the truck and went to bed in a very un-level trailer, that was FREEZING. Luckily the heater kicked on in the night and warmed it up a bit, and we had a couple of blankets. We got to sleep in on Saturday (something we NEVER get to do together), and then headed out on the wheeler to look at the gorgeous trees. I took my big camera with me and decided I was going to shoot the whole weekend in Manual. I try to use manual, shutter, and aperture as much as I can, but I chicken out a lot and switch it to auto. So needless to say I took a lot of bad pictures, but I learned a lot and got a few good ones!

When we got back from our ride Kade was up and about, and as soon as he heard the fourwheeler he had to go for a ride. Of course the wheeler wouldn't start until he sang the hakuna matata song. He his so dang funny! "If the world turns your back on you, you turn your back on the world" He's getting very good at performing he starts out loud, gets even louder in the middle and at the end of the song he says the last word very quiet and drags it out. He uses his hands a ton too. I think everyones favorite part was... it's our probem free hilosophy hakuna matata.

The boys needed to sight in their rifles so they could go hunting so we all jumped in the trucks and found a good spot, with a bunch of muddy puddles. Kade loves muddy puddles. You could tell he wanted to jump and splash in them so bad, but he was good and just threw rocks in them.
