CAMPING!!

Alex and I had such a great weekend last week!!! We went camping with Maizy!! She was so fun and so good in the car, on the lake, and on the river.



We got a little discouraged our first night out because we left really late and we couldn't find anywhere to camp!! We ended up jumping a short fence and camping at a little park with a ward and all their kids. The kids had a blast playing with Maizy and we had a place to sleep :) 

The next morning we got up and went to the lake and floated on the kayak for a while. Maizy HATED the water unless Alex was in it with her. She kept jumping back into the kayak every time we tried to through her out. She was kind of a wimp. 

After the lake, we went back to the park we slept in and lit up a fire to eat our tin foil dinners we had originally planned for the night before. They were really yummy since we were so hot and hungry. Dus and Bri planned to meet us at the river so we went out to get everything blown up and ready :) We floated the river twice with Dus, Bri and Maizy. The first time on the kayak and the second time on the tubes. We thought Maizy still hated the water but when Alex was on the tube, Maizy wanted to be close to him so she stayed in the water the whole time!! A few times though, she jumped in the kayak just to get past the rapids but as soon as we passed em, she was back in the water swimming next to Alex :) 

After a couple floats, we packed everything up and went to eat in the town next door. Then, we went up the mountain a little for the boys to dirt bike a while. They found a pretty good place but we only stayed for a bit. We were all very tired and ready to go home :) 

Needless to say, our camping weekend was a BLAST!!
