Camping!

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

This Memorial Day weekend we went camping! Bryan got 5 days off and I got about 4 and half, and while talking to my mom she was talking about going camping at the Grand Canyon and I thought it was such a good idea. We are having amazing weather and Hailey is ALWAYS talking about going camping. I called the camp ground on base and booked! As soon as all the kids left we packed up and left..I was so happy because we were only 5 minutes from our house! We were able to rent a camping package from the base that had everything we needed and more for camping. We grilled hotdogs, roasted marshmallows, went for a hike and went fishing. It was so much fun..except for TICKS and bugs for that matter! Gross..and I was so lucky to not get any but sadly Bryan got one two and my poor little love who loves playing in nature got two as well. She got one in her belly button and one one her chest. She thought they were spiders and were very brave as we pulled them out. We went to the lake and saw an amazing sunset..but when it was time for bed I called my mom and stayed up really late because I was too scared to sleep! After a very long night we scrambled eggs and bacon and considered staying another night until it started raining! Hailey loved it so much..I wasn't a big fan but I love doing things that Hailey loves doing. I'm sure we will do it again.
