camping












the last two weekends tyler and i took the girls camping the first weekend we went up to echo the girls were great they loved sleeping in a tent, they slept great and we all stayed plenty warm. they loved the tubing and actually tyler was able to get stella and claire both out on the waterskies.


well the second weekend did not go as well. this time we went up with my family to east canyon. the girls had fun roasting marshmellows and went to bed really good. but by the time i went back into the tent around 11:00 pm i woke annie up. and she did not want to go back to sleep. she cried and cried and cried. i know everyone around us was thinking who are those idiots that brought the baby camping. anyway i finally took her to the car and tried to sleep with her in there so there was some sound barrier but i didnt have too much sucess with that either. finally around 12:30 am tyler came to the car and said just take her home. so i did the last thing tyler said was do you know how to get home. which i did if it were day time. well to sum things up, i missed the correct turn and ended up about 30mins out of park city. by this time i was in tears and ticked off at every possible thing. i finally got back on route i made it home at 2:00am and both annie and i were in our beds asleep at 2:02am.

then the next morning we woke up and headed back up to east canyon. lets just say were going to retire the tent until next summer.

Your mom told me this story, that must have been so frustrating being lost in the middle of the night with crying Annie...just to go home for a few hours of sleep and turn around and go back the next morning! You're a good mama!

Hey, do you want to go camping in September?

That is the funniest story.. it probably wasn't too funny at the time, but as a listener I got a kick out of it.
You're such a good Mom.
At least the s'mores look yummy.
