I saw this on pinterest and thought Zac would love it when he opened the door to go to the pantry. Jon said he did, (I was sleeping).
Zac decided he wanted to go camping for his birthday this year. We are trying to keep the big parties in control....
We went to the Uintas and found a great quiet and private spot.
Enzo was just hanging out in his seat while we set up camp.
Daddy setting up the tent
This is from the car to our spot.
And back to the car. I would love to go here again. I don't remember the name or site number though :(
Cooking hot dogs for everyone
Just relaxing in nature....(being January now, I've really really been wanting to go camping-in the warm summer weather!)
Presents!!
Max made a little book for Zac. Zac loved it! Max had been giving hints that he made Zac a surprise!
This just melts my heart :)
Learning how to play the recorder. Do they do that in school anymore? I learned in 5th grade, I think?
I made a peach infused bundt. It was supposed to be really yummy, but the peaches were lacking. I think due to the dryness of this year. It was really really windy so we had to light the candles with the cover of the car.
Jon and I were just wiped out. We retreated to the tent and relaxed while the boys played Operation!
My cute little Enzo!
The boys went on a night hike with their little lanterns, while I stayed to listen for Enzo and read my Kindle. Our site was right next to a dry river bed. They hiked back a little ways and found a dead deer that was just bones! And some dead trees!
That morning we tried to keep the boys quiet since Enzo was still sleeping and we were trying to sleep too. But when Zac said, "there's a moose out there!" Jon and both sat up! There wasn't one! There were 5 if I remember right. I was freaking out. I was so afraid they were going to trample our tent with us in it. But they were just watching us and eating leaves. Then after about 5-10 mins they left.
Then Jon got up and started breakfast while I get Enzo ready and starting to put all the bedding away.
It was a great little trip! Happy Birthday, Zac!
