Hot Dog Roast

Since Camille's girls stayed over at Grandma's with us last night, we decided to meet up after church in the canyon to take pictures in the poppy fields and she could pick up her girls from me.  Camille called and said she had lots of hot dogs and suggested that it would be a fun idea to start a fire at the campground near the poppies and roast hot dogs and s'mores. It's amazing how something as small as a mosquito can put a kink in the works?  Camille to the rescue- everyone sprayed and on with the fun!  The boys found a snake and butterfly. The girls found a rope swing.

 Unfortunately the poppies weren't in full bloom yet but I made Jess stand by this tree while I snapped a few shots of her.  The mosquitoes were terrible so we only had a few minutes before we were ran out of the trees.  Luckily Jessica is gorgeous and it doesn't take long to get some great shots of her.  I can't believe how quickly she is growing! She starts her Sophomore year this year and already has her learner's driving permit!!

Jessica went back with her mom because she had a church meeting to get to, but we were lucky enough to keep Morgan and Afton for another night.  Back at Grandpa and Grandma's house we were having delicious brownies and ice cream.  Russ came with the kids (Mer has a sore throat, so she stayed home with Sawyer),  Jeff and Cristal, James, Hannah, Brandon, Caitlin and Shawn were there and Spencer and Jenny came with their kids as well.  It was fun to catch up with everyone and share some good laughs.  We are getting ready for our family reunion in Vernal this weekend and we talked about different things we remembered growing up.  It's been over 10 years since I've been to Vernal and I'm excited to show my kids where I was born.
