Fish Lake

Dad got a new boat last year so we were excited to take it out this year to our favorite camping spot. The highlight of the trip was catching the biggest fish we've ever pulled out of Fish Lake! A 22in mackinaw and it was delicious. 

We caught a few other little ones. We ate a few and threw a bunch of them back. 

We enjoyed exploring and going for walks, throwing rocks in the lake, getting ice cream at the Bowery store, and taking turns in mom's kayak. 

The best part of camping is after you put the kids to bed in the tent and you can enjoy an evening scroll or looking at the fire without making sure no little kids fall in! 

Diamond Creek 2020

I'm so glad we've still been able to do some of our fun summer things despite social distancing and all the pandemic craziness. My kids love going to Diamond Creek and riding the horses and four wheelers. This year it was a family reunion of sorts. Most of my mother's siblings and their children were able to come so we had a pretty good group and it was so fun! I wish I would have gotten a picture of the whole group. We did get a picture of all the tents up from the hill. 

Susie had the time of her life hanging out with Addie and all of the older big kid cousins. She loved riding horses and exploring and taking lots of rides on the four wheelers. 

Braden had a great time too. He got pretty dirty and and slept soundly on the car ride home. 

Clark made a new friend. He attached himself to Aspen and followed her around where ever she went. If he couldn't find her he'd ask everyone, "you know where my friend go?" She was so sweet to him. Clark got to get on a horse too for the first time! 

My kids are the only little kids on my side of the family, but we have a few babies now. (One due in October that I'm especially excited about!) It was nice to be able to spend time with family and be in one of our favorite places. 

This is my favorite picture..
