July 4th, 2013

We took Izzy & Ali and went camping for 4 days to Duck Creek. It was one of the best camping trips we have had. We had so much fun. We fished and caught over 200 fish. (they were having a contest to see who caught the most) The girls were catching them as fast as they could throw their line in. People were coming up and asking us what we were doing different than them... We were in a different place each day, so I guess we just have the right touch. They got real good at taking the hooks out and throwing the fish back in. We also spent one day at Bryce Canyon. The sky was smoky from some forest fires the wind brought in, but it was still beautiful. We stopped in the little town and bought Dream Catchers, and goofed around for awhile. Back at camp, we hiked up the trail behind our trailer and found their "name" trees again. We went to Duck Creek Village for ice cream, and watched the parade. It was mostly 4 wheelers and jeeps, but the girls had fun getting lots of candy thrown at them. We got poured on one afternoon so we stayed in the trailer and played lots of fun games. The weather was 45 degrees cooler than when we left home. It was so refreshing. The girls and I went for walks each morning (well, they followed on their bikes) I would go camping every week if I could!!!!
