We haven't been camping for along time so we went over Labor Day with Jesse's family. We had a lot of fun and Mylee was so excited. We did the usual stuff you do camping which makes it so enjoyable. Hang out and do nothing, one of my favorite things about the mountains is just to get away from everything. We made yummy meals, played games, sat by the campfire, road four-wheelers, went fishing, and just hung out. Mylee didn't know quite what to think about sleeping in the tent, on the way to bed she kept telling me she wanted to go home but we made it through even though that night was a little rough and she did much better the next night. It was really cold during the nights and the coyotes howled all night and were really close to us. Mylee had never been fishing so we had her so excited to go, we went and bought her her own fishing pole which she picked and wanted Dora the Explorer fishing pole. Luckily she had a little fish at the end of the line that you could practice with because that was the only fish we had luck catching. I wanted her to be able to catch at least one fish but we didn't have any luck so fishing lost her interest pretty quick. I guess next time she needs to go with Grandpa Rick and then maybe she'll have better luck!
Terel and Julie put together a Grandma and Grandpa camp for the kids. Then talked to them about things that they liked to do when they were little and different kinds of candies that they ate. They had fun activities like play-do, bubble snake, and mud pies. They then went on a hike and while they did that Jett stepped in a cactus and got hurt so for the rest of the trip Mylee wanted to here the story about Jett getting hurt. She gets so worried its so cute.
All in all we had a really fun weekend with everyone!
