July 2011

Five + days at Aunt Katherine's condo in Jackson Hole, WY with the entire Claycamp clan.
Alpine slides in Jackson.
Chuck wagon dinner with real Indians and cowboys. (Loved the rubber tires on the covered wagons, the all you can eat food [that was very good], the driver who let Aaron think he was driving, and the fiddler who rocked it and gave Livi his bow!)
So proud of our kids. The only kids to have done the hike to the falls and back. 5 miles! Lucky for them, we got to see a momma moose while doing it.
Yellowstone National Park and all it's splendor. Even a dead buffalo carcass.

3 days camping in Bear Lake, UT with my mom's family. Wave runners, a boat, sand castles, games, campfires, good food, a wind storm that flipped tents upside down and broke lots of poles...what could be better! Tons of FUN!!!

3 days with the Williams in Pleasant Grove, UT.

More family bonding: 7 Peaks water park on Friday!!! SO COOL! Rodeo in Spanish Fork on Saturday. With the kids in their new western boots, Livi was sure the Rodeo queen was waving just to her. And so, she waved back. With a big hoop and a holler, she couldn't have had more fun. She now tells everyone she's going to be a cowgirl when she grows up. (A girl after my own heart.) Bill even got dressed up for the occasion and bought himself a really great western shirt.


Home for 3 days and then off to Big Sur, CA to camp with the Ellison's. Beautiful campground and a great place that we would like to go to every year except for the fact that we will NEVER go there again! How do you tell your kids to go run and play in the forest except don't touch anything green because it could be poison oak! Oops, didn't do our homework too well on that part. Luckily I was the only one who got it, and a very little bit at that. Tecnu is a great soap that they conveniently sell in the campground general store that gets rid of the oils from the poison oak. Even Annie got a bath in it. (That was before she decided to leap out of the back of the truck and run to be with her family in the car behind her. Luckily we were still in the campground.)

The beach was breathtaking.

And tons of fun.
