Ward Campout

It was SO nice to get out into the mountains again, we didn't get to go camping once last year, so it's felt like forever! It was so beautiful up there and I was amazed how cool it got....who would have thought 45 mins out of Las Vegas!






Camp Stimpson was nice (other than the outhouses that REALLY needed cleaned out!) We all camped close together and shared two big fires. John, Trevor, Tara and I were the last to go to bed a midnight--which I don't know why we bothered at all, I don't think I got any sleep, but that's part of camping, RIGHT?


Our ward Motto is 'The One', so this is our ward flag.

















We had a nice breakfast and scavenger hunt, afterwards everyone took little hikes.





John and Mason had been to Camp Stimpson for Father n Son's a couple of weekends before, so John knew where to go hiking.




This was Elise's first Camping trip. She had fun and I was impressed that she didn't fall down or get dirty hardly at all! Which is success in my book.



Mason had a great time playing with his friends and it was kind-of nice letting him have more freedom-I CAN'T believe he's almost 5!! The kids were kicking a ball around, but because we were on a hill it kept rolling down the hill and all the kids would run after...it was funny watching them try to keep the ball by our camp.


On the way home both kids were so tired, Elise didn't even make it out of the campground before she was asleep and Mason...well Mason had eaten enough sugar to keep him bouncing around for 20 mins, then he slowly layed his head down







Over all I think it was a great Ward Campout, we'll definately go again next year....only we'll remember the air mattress!
