First Camping Trip of the year!!

We had a few days off before our next event and decided that it would be good to take Canyon and Evan on a fishing/camping trip.  We went to Hyrum State Park and had a blast.  We did not catch any fish but the camping was excellent and we want to go back again soon.

These are the only fish that we caught.

We had lots of laughs having these two with us.  Canyon was riding his bike at the boat ramp and decided to ride into the water.  The water started rising on his bike wheel, his eyes got large, he turned the wheel and just jumped off and ran back to shore.  It happened so fast that I could not warn him that the ramp sloped down into the water.  I thought I was going to split a gut laughing at him.
The next day we were on a nature hike and came to a huge drop off into the lake.  He decided that he wanted to go down to the lake and I told him not to that it was to steep for him to get back up.  If you know Canyon, telling him not to do it was an invitation for him to do it anyway.  He sat on the side of the drop off and his flip flop went sliding to the bottom (about 10 feet or more down).  He slid down on his butt to get the shoe and then could not get back up.  Gramps was looking for a long stick to hold down to him but could not find one.  I was just getting ready to run back to the camper to get a rope to help pull him up with when he finally got enough footing to get up to where I could grab his arm and pull him up.  Needless to say, he did learn a lesson about listening to Grandma (the wise one).
This was a fun trip for us and Evan's first camping trip in the camper.  The best part was having her own toilet and not having to sit on a log like when she goes camping with her Daddy.
We made S'mores and roasted marshmellows too.  We want to go again soon.
