Uinta camping '09

Only a few days after Brian and the kids went to Stanley, Idaho we all went camping to the Uinta mountains. And we all means 9 people, 7 dogs.?? I have always loved the Uintas, I feel like I grew up there. Its usually 15 degrees cooler than the valley we live in and the majority of trees that make up the forest are the Quaking Aspen(my favorite).

Is that not the sweetest picture of Jabin taking his little brother for a walk? Well truth be told Kade was screaming "I want to go for a walk" everyone was trying to either cook breakfast or clean up camp, so we sorta forced Jabin to go. But its still a precious picture.

This picture of Thomas has a somewhat long but hilarious story behind it. We had taken up the kids 4 wheelers(yes Jabin and Kades 4 wheelers-can we say spoiled) and Thomas had taken out Jabins 4 wheeler and Jabin was on Kades. Well leave it to the sheriff of...the Uintas...I guess, to notice these 2 boys. Along with the warning we got for Jabin not have taken his 4 wheeling class, Thomas got a ticket for not wearing his helmet. So Thomas decided that to be safe for the rest of the trip he would wear a helmet...no matter what he was doing. In this picture, he was simply taking a walk.

This is Haley, my dog. She is rolling in cow shit. In her defence I can only hope she knows something we don't about rolling in poo.

And this is Coda, my sweet boy. He is getting a little older, he turned 9 this year. He loves to be outside, and this is what I call Codas piece of heaven. He just chilled there one day.

We had a good time camping, we came home so dirty, and so tired, but it was nice to look at the sky at night and see the stars again.
