Estes Park

We went camping with our friends last weekend at Estes Park. It was so much fun and a lot of work! Estes Park is beautiful. It reminded us a lot of Park City but totally surrounded by the most beautiful mountains in what seems like the middle of nowhere.

We got there and set up camp and then walked to a really pretty lake and went fishing. We ate smores and then put the kids to bed and stayed up and talked around the campfire, which is my favorite part of camping by far!

Matt got up early with Brian and went back to the lake.

Me and Brinley sleeping. I was soooo cold.

Brinley caught moths by the lantern. She loves to catch any kid of bug she can find!

Madison was the only one to catch a fish and it was BIG! Brian helped her reel it in but they ended up letting it go.



All the kids!
Now that I am a Mom I can appreciate all that my Mom did to get ready to camp when we were little kids. It seemed like we were always going camping when me and my brothers and sisters were growing up.

Brinley is such a good helper!

You could hold your finger up to the feeder and the hummingbirds would come and land on your finger. It was really awesome!

Fun - I love camping, it is a lot of work to pack everything up for just one night though, but usually always worth it

Jame,
You look so good. I can't believe you have two kiddies. We sure miss you guys. Hope all is well.

That looks like so much fun, it makes me want to go camping, and I don't even like camping!
How have you guys been? We should catch up the next time you are in Utah!
