Trip to the Tah

The trip to Utah was a lot of fun and it went by way too fast. Luckily I was able to see a lot of my family while I was there. I went camping up Logan Canyon with my parents, my brother Ryan, his wife Melanie and their two cute daughters Erika and Bailey. My Grandma and Grandpa came up for an afternoon as well. My brothers Chase and Jordan were 'too busy' to make an appearance. Actually Jordan did come up for a few hours...he spent most of it fishing, but it was great to see him.

On the way to the airport I got to stop in and see my cousin Alisha, her husband Ben and their brand new baby Ender that was born on Wednesday. He was so, so, so cute. I could have held him all day long! He almost made me want to throw my 'wait until I am 30 to have kids' rule right out the window. It's OK Rob...I said almost, you can relax now.

Jord is quite the fisherman! He caught a fish or two and even cooked it in the fire and ate it for dinner. Quite the yuck if you ask me, but hey, I guess nobody did! Check out digs in the background...yeah, that was my pad. It's too bad nobody wanted to share with me so I got my own tent. My Dad even put it up for me. Gosh, I am spoiled!

The girls were in time-out and naturally, when camping, the cooler is an ideal stand in for the time-out seat. I am fairly certain the time-out guidelines do not permit photo ops, but since I am not a parent I could pretend not to know that. This shot was just too cute to pass up. Even their Mom couldn't resist snapping a quick picture of them.

I was trying to take a picture of Bailey in the tent and she kept trying to close the door on me. She hasn't quite mastered the zipper.

Ryan, Bailey, Mom, Erika and half of Melanie's face. Yes, I am a great photographer!

While it is great to visit back home, I alway enjoy returning to my home, especially when I travel without Rob. He definitely isn't a camper and my family is trying to get him to come camping next year. He has agreed to go as long as we rent a little motor home or trailer type something. Some may say that's high maintenance, but I don't care because where he goes, I go and I would never turn down a bed, shower and bathroom over a tent and outhouse. Crazy!
