Summer Camping Trip to Hoop Lake

When you live in Wyoming, and only 30 minutes from gorgeous mountains, you should probably go camping every year, right?!? But somehow, this summer was our very first family camping trip in the Uintas. And it was a huge hit with the kids! They definitely want to go back again next summer!

Brady spent most of the two days in his underwear. Not really sure WHY.....

Just loungin' with this cute little chubster.

These crazies got all the way in the freezing cold lake!

Hiking is always better with walking sticks.

Lewis got to ride on Dad's shoulders part of the way. Tony was limping like crazy (he had just had his calf stepped on by a steer a few days before), but he still insisted he come on the hike with us.

One final fun memory was the boat race. The girls spent lots of time (and had a little help from Mom) creating their cruise ship, Micheli of the Seas, while Connor elected to not do any work on his (typical). They set sail, and, not surprisingly, the girls' boat won!
