Jones Mountain June 2010

I know these are far delayed, and I apologize, but it's been a crazy summer! and even though school has started, the crazy hasn't ended!! But here are a few highlights from our VERY memorable camping trip. Jones Mountain is in Southern UT, and it was VERY beautiful (and very cold).


As you can see, the Joseph wasted no time getting his war paint on! And if you're wondering, he's drooling "mud"... it was pretty gross!! And there's my other little man! trying to stay warm, waiting for some hot cocoa at Great-Grandpa Jones' camp!


These next few are from the first night there. what's a campout without smores?!?! Poor Grandma Nuttall was being mobbed, since she was holding all the deliciousness! And here are two of my favorite men! Poor Joseph got quite the "cold rash" on his cheeks... although putting A&D on his cheeks at night really helped him go to sleep quickly! at least, until he learned to climb out of the play pen...


And here's Kylie, and our cousin, Harrison, enjoying smores and preparing to add to the fire! Did I mention it was cold?? It was the low 40's at night. brrrrrrr! I wasn't quite prepared. but we all survived!


Here's proof that I was there!! Making breakfast the most stressful morning of my life. The stress didn't start for another 2 hours or so... And here's my littlest man, LOVING the outdoors! He loved being (mostly) free to roam. and sure did love all that dirt.


Ahhh, the source of my stress... So Jared's uncle brought a few ATV's, and I think that's the only thing the kids did that weekend... so one morning, Sara followed (my theory) an ATV on foot... except she took the wrong path. Once she was safe back at camp, she snuggled down for a nap with her rescuer, Great Grandpa Jones. And on the right, the aforementioned ATV. Yes, it's pulling around Kylie on a wagon. And no, no one was hurt. I was really impressed with how safe of drivers these cousins are!!

Poor Kylie got a fever the last day we were there... I think the cold temps, combined with her having strep throat the week before, caught up to her. Thankfully, she wasn't out of commission for long! (and right after this picture, she stuck her tongue out at me. She's DEFINITELY her father's daughter!) And here's my little Sara! She caught a lizard (with a little help) our last day at camp, and all she wanted was a photo of her holding it!
