Camping Trip to Spruces!

So, about a month or so ago we bought a tent trailer. We were so excited to use it, but McKenzie's soccer games have totally taken up our weekends so we hadn't been able to take it out. A couple weekends ago, we decided that we would go after McKenzie's soccer game up to the Spruces campground for a night. I love that campground. It is up in Big Cottonwood Canyon and is sooo nice. Anyway, we took the trailer up there Saturday and had Les, Nate, and the kids, and Mere come up for dinner...dutch oven chicken, carrots, and potatoes...yum! For desert...as many s'mores as we could eat. The kids thought it was hilarious to catch the marshmallows on fire, just so they could blow them out like a candle. It was so much fun. Sunday we got up and put everything away and started our hike to Dog Lake. We wanted to go to donut falls, but found out that our trailer couldn't go with us. Boo! Anyway, we started the hike, but go too hungry and tired to actually get to the lake, so we turned around and came home. We had a so much fun and were VERY sore the next day...what a hike!

At the campground...she always has to pose for the picture.

On our hike, we found a fort. McKenzie kept calling it her home!
