Memorial Day Weekend

For Memorial Day weekend, we took a break from work and church callings and went down to Gunnison. We packed up Thursday night and headed down. On Friday, my dad and Chris did their dedicated hunter hours while my mom, Kelli and I got food and the camping gear ready. When my dad and Chris got back, we loaded the truck and headed up the mountains. Kelli was so excited to see her cousins. She played and played with them all day Friday. By the time we started heading up the mountains, she was out. It was a good thing because we were able to set up the whole camp while she slept. Here she is taking a snooze in our tent.


That night, Kelli and her cousins had a blast. Look at what cute little girls they are.


We enjoyed an incredible meal of tin foil dinners. They were the best tin foil dinners I have ever had. They cooked perfectly and they tasted so good. We also roasted marshmallows and made smores which is one of my favorite things to do.

After wards, we headed over to a lake that was close by our camping spot and fly fished a little. Chris caught several fish and had the girls reel in the fish. They had a blast.



The next day, we made an awesome breakfast which consisted of french toast, eggs, bacon and hot chocolate. Then we headed back to the lake and did some more fly fishing. For some reason, fly fishing worked the best which was a good thing, because fly fishing is my favorite kind of fishing.


The weather was great this year. That was the one thing that worried us the most especially with how the weather has been lately and because last year it rained the whole time. It was a great trip and wonderful to see family and hang out with everyone.
