Weekend Family Campout

This past weekend we went on a camp out with Bethany's brother and Sisters. We went up to a campground north of Logan. It was a fun campground and nice to get up there and relax. We set up and then just chatted with everyone that was up there and waited for the others to get there. The next day on Sat. we all went up to Bear Lake to go swimming and play at the beach. It was so beautiful to see the lake as we were driving in. We had lots of fun in the water and sand, even though it was windy. The water was a little cold at first, but not bad. Back at the campsite we ate dinner and then just sat and chatted. My brother in law say lightning so we started to put everything away into the cars in case of rain. We got finished and in our tents at the right moment it started to rain. Not a big rainstorm though. The next morning the big kids and some of the guys went on a hike that was only supposed to be a small one and turned out to be a 3 hour 8 mile hike. OOPS!! Oh well they had fun. At around 4:30 we saw clouds roll in and a big gust of wind came up and broke down a tree in our campsite, luckily most of the kids were in my sister's truck watching a movie. My sister in law, her little boy and my niece were out there, but only got brushed by the branches. At that moment it started to rain and we all decided to pick up and go home. We didn't want anymore trees to fall on us. So we packed up, well more like throw everything in the truck and was out of there before the big rain started. Chris couldn't see out the back window on the way home we stuffed the truck up so much. We were sad that we had to leave early, but we were ready. We went home through Preston and the rain did not stop until we got back on the freeway. That wouldn't have been fun to sit in the tent with a two year old for that long. That was our fun trip this past weekend. I will post pictures in another post.
