We DID hie to Kolob!

I have gone to Girls Camp every summer since I turned 12. It has been a wonderful tradition and I was not about to miss out this year, especially since I have a Young Women's calling. Since Spencer and I are a package deal he was able to be there with me and Nathan was able to get off work to be with us. We were only up there for one day but we had a blast. It was a fun little family adventure.
The camp site was different than the one I have gone to with Paradise Stake every summer, but it was close and still beautiful. It was fun to see the view from the other side of the mountain.
We left at 2 in the morning to be up there in time to get ice cream in Hurricane, UT and be there for breakfast. Spencer is such a great little road-tripper. We are really lucky. We saw lots of cows, deer and beautiful vistas as the sun rose.

Little Green Cabin we stayed in

It was fun to hear the girls' reactions. They were quite surprised to find a baby at camp. He was happy and smiley in the morning and slept all afternoon. I was a little worried that he would be up all night, but he treated his Mom to 6 hours of straight sleep (which was desperately needed after a 1 am wake up time to leave on time). A friend in the ward was nice enough to let us stay in her parents' cabin. It was much more pleasant than having to set up a tent. While we were there he rolled over for the first time. He is growing up too fast for his mommy's tastes but we are so proud of him.
