First Camping Trip 2008

Last weekend we packed our things up and joined Jay's sister, Joy, and her family on a camping trip up by Kelly's Canyon. We went up Friday afternoon and left Saturday morning after breakfast so we could drive up to Island Park with Jay to finish up a tile job. We decided that camping is worth the work to get ready even if it is just for the night. The kids all had fun and so did Jay and I. The kids got to play with their cousins and even went on a four wheeler ride. They love being outside and I love it as long as we aren't close to any roads or water.

It got a little could in the night, but thanks to Joy, we had enough blankets. For some reason we didn't think to pack very many blankets to sleep with. We had some, but definetly not enough for all of us. The kids stayed plenty warm though.









Jay and I cooked dutch oven chicken enchiladas for dinner for the adults and the the kids ate hot dogs. The enchiladas took a while to cook, but once they were done we thought they were worth the wait. The next morning as we packed up, Joy and Russ cooked all of us pancakes, eggs and sausage which we all enjoyed.
