Camping at Woods Canyon Lake

Last weekend we went camping with the Kimble's near Woods Canyon Lake.  It was nice and cool, although really humid, and a lot of fun.  It rained, which normally we love but when you are camping it just gets mud everywhere and is really a mess.   
Lila had a good time.  She was really funny though, she didn't like the way the pine needles felt or something so she refused to put her hands on the ground.  She still ended up as filthy as could be.  She loved exploring though and picking up sticks copying her brothers.
Alden trying out his new pocket knife and Brig with a soda pop like always.  Every camping picture we have of that boy he is guzzling down a pop.  
The boys.  We need to invest in a camping chair for Lila, she loved them and was always kicking one of her brothers out of theirs so she could sit in it.
Took a trip down to the Tonto Creek Fish Hatchery.  Fish totally gross me out. I couldn't believe the way the fish went crazy over the food we would throw into them.  They were literally jumping out of the water.  Crazy! Very entertaining though.
We took a nice hike down by Tonto Creek too.  It was a lot of fun.
The boys had so much fun playing in the water and Champ just had a blast the whole trip running all around.  He chased those boys everywhere.
My monkey kids who think they can climb anything.  They sure make me nervous watching some of the things they do.
Dallin, Hyrum, and Tara on our hike.
Lila sticking her toes in the water.  We had a really good time.  Dallin and Tara made a yummy dutch oven dinner (which was rather entertaining trying to dutch oven in the rain).  Scott made a yummy breakfast.  The boys went fishing and we just relaxed and had a good time.  It is sooo nice to go home and take a shower after camping though!!!  Thanks to mom for letting us take her Tahoe and for the Wilsons for lending us their camper.  It was much nicer to have that with Lila than trying to stay in a tent with her.
