Rich Family Campout

So, every August the Rich family gets together up Big Cottonwood canyon for their annual campout. We always have some great food and have fun spending time together. This year was no exception. We usually have the whole clan for a cookout, then only the "tough" ones are left to sleep over. This year I slept in the back of our Explorer while Brad tested Coop out in the tent. He did great. He fell asleep just fine and then woke up around seven which I guess is alright when you are camping.
The funniest thing of the night was the camp hosts yelling at us. They didn't really like the Rich family. There was only room for two vehicles and we had five, so while we unloaded they would come around and tell us to move and then sit there until we did. That wasn't even the worst part. We were yelled at three times because one of the car tires was six inches on the dirt. SERIOUSLY??? That dirt must have been pretty important! Finally after moving it twice we were alright...thank goodness.






The best picture of the night. Coop is already growing up to be exactly like his dad!! haha



The next morning we did a quick hike to Donut Falls. It was a really easy hike with little kids and the falls were really neat.




Throwing rocks again!



My cute Boys!
