camping 2011... round 2

The very next weekend, the first week of August, we went to the usual Stewart family camping area just past Willow Springs Lake on the rim. But this time I was husband-less. It wasn't as bad as I had though it would be. Someone was definitely missing Daddy, but all the interesting things to explore and fun cousins were great distractions. Plus I had help from Aunts and Grandma. The only thing I would change if I go camping again with a baby and no Ryan is to make sure I'm in a tent big enough for a pack and play. It was just one night, so somehow we survived. Ryan was camping with some of the Teachers quorum for their Super Activity in the White Mountains, but on the way home they came through where we were. We all had a great time! Again, picture overload!

camping 2011...round 1

The last weekend of July we went camping with my sister's family and her in-laws and had a great time! It was at a place we had never been just a few miles South of Williams, AZ, called Dogtown Lake. It was beautiful! You can actually see the lake from where we camped. We were there for two nights, and despite the rain and the trains going by every 30 minutes all night long Evelyn slept really well. She loved playing in the dirt and exploring, Ryan made some delicious dutch over potatoes and cobbler, caught some Crappies (that's a fish), and I had fun relaxing in the forest. Well, while I wasn't trying to keep a certain 1 year old from eating dirt and flowers that is. Get ready for picture overload, because here are some highlights!
