1st Camping Trip of the Season!

Last weekend, we ventured down to Goblin Valley with a group of friends.  It was only our 2nd time camping as a family of 4. (We took Abigail out at the very end of last summer.)  What a fun time!

Dinner time!

To say that Goblin Valley is one gigantic playground would be an understatement.

Snuggle time!

Hanging out by the campfire...Emma is on the verge of falling asleep.

We are still finding sand around the house.

Making breakfast...

Our campsite

Naps in tents are the best!

She hit the ball so hard she knocked over the tee.

Hiking around Goblin Valley State Park...

Abigail didn't make a peep the entire 2-hour hike.

Lunch break!

We even played a little frisbee along the way.

Playing with Mia...

 Unfortunately, we awoke to rain on Sunday morning (and a screaming 1-year old who could not be consoled).  It's bad enough we had to pack up in the rain but, worse yet, we couldn't even make our coffee.  We were on the road by 7:30 a.m. and home by about noon.  And, yes, we did stop for coffee at about the half-way point.

We also encountered snow on the way home.

This photo was taken after she FINALLY calmed down.  

I must say...both girls do pretty well in the car.

We can't wait for our other camping adventures that await us!!
