We finally went camping again after two years, and this was the first time we went as just our little family, usually we go with someone else, but this time it was just us, and it was also Mia's very first time, and she loved it!! (except for a few tumbles) We started out going on a hike up a waterfall, this first picture below is the very bottom of the falls. (You can see all the pictures on my facebook page)
Then we took another hike that had this amazing view of seven falls at the end, this picture does not do it justice at all, but you get the idea!
Then we went to our camp site at a place called 11 mile lake. It was really fun there. The rangers did lots of fun stuff for the kids so they could become Jr. Rangers.
Mia loved being outside, but had a hard time walking on the uneven ground, so she took a few tumbles, usually on her face! This pic was right after she tumbled into a prickley bush and got half of her face all scratched up!
Tycee took a tumble too, but just happened to hit a rock, other wise she would have been fine
Mia loved it though she was always smiling and having fun!!(I guess who wouldn't be happy with a donut and bottle in your hands!!)
One night the rangers took us crawdad fishing, and the girls had fun for the first five minutes, then started to get a little bored, but then Ariana got a bite, so we had fun trying to catch the thing, it was to smart, as soon as we pulled it out of the water, it would let go, so we had to wait for it to grab on again, I finally got a box right under it so as soon as we pulled it out it fell in the box.
The big one is the one Ariana caught, then another girl gave us the little one. We kept them over night, then we let them go in the morning.
Our last day we went to a rock park called Garden of the Gods. It was really cool there, it has all these crazy rock formations, and lots of places to hike and rock climb. This next picture is of the two kissing camels.
This is just another wierd rock formation.
We had lots of fun, to bad summer is over, I can't wait to go camping again!!
