Our First Camping Trip Together!

I'm ashamed to admit it, but until now, Marshall and I have never been camping together. It's not for lack of effort - I've been nagging him to take our family for over three years (maybe that's why we never went). Some friends from our ward invited us to go on a one-night camp out about 1-hour away. So, I packed us all up - including our new tent I got for my birthday and we headed out. Aside from our air mattresses losing ALL of its air and Meili and Isaac tossing and turning all night keeping us awake, it wasn't too bad.

We made hobo dinners for dinner. Unfortunately, my dinner stayed on the fire a little too long.

We roasted marshmallows.

We went hiking down to the river.

The next morning we went on a hike to the "Ringing Rocks." These rocks have metallic deposits, and when hit with a hammer, they make the sound of a bell.

I hope we'll go camping again someday!
