Camping

One of my favorite things we do together as a family is go camping.  This year we headed up Logan Canyon and camped at Lodge Campground.  We had a great time together.  Tiff had returned home from Pennsylvania on Tuesday from working all summer at a summer camp but was a good sport about heading back out to go CAMPING! 

Tiffany and I left Thursday afternoon to go find us a place to camp and set up camp.  Mike joined us that night and we had a fun night just enjoying the three of us.  Friday we packed up a picnic and went for a ride in search of a airplane crash site up behind Beaver Mountain.  We found it and read about how 32 men who had been serving in the Korean War were on their way home to South Carolina in January 1953 and crashed killing the 32 men and 4 crew members.  They had a hard time getting into the crash site and had to maintain a 24 hour guard until June of that year before they could get everything taken care of.  It was a great ride and very interesting to read about.  You can still see where the plane broke all of the trees off as it crashed.

The rest of the family arrived later Friday night.  We spent the rest of the weekend just enjoying one another.

Here are some pictures from our weekend:

Mike's dad drove up to see us on Saturday from Idaho Falls and spent the day with us.  We enjoyed having him there with our family and got some great pictures with him also.

On Sunday, Scott took us for a short hike into some kid sized caves not far from where we were camped.  Looked like a fun place for a camping trip next time.
