We spent the last 3 days with my whole family up at Payson Lakes (a tradition that started about 20 years ago). We fished (very successfully!), hiked, rode bikes, played campfire games & bloody wolf, watched every kid turf it hard on the dirt at some point, ate lots of chocolate, clogged up our arteries with Tim's scones/fish & chips, played card games (I set a new record for the worst loss in rummy), laughed at Maddy's fish face (pictured above), mocked the new ten o'clock curfew put in place by the camp hosts, and enjoyed every minute of being together (well maybe not every minute--but nearly). We didn't see anything of the Payson Canyon fire that was burning down below us, but the main road was still closed, so we all had to take the very long way home. We are currently all doing lots of smelly campfire laundry and dreading the all too soon first day of school.

Camping was so fun!! I especially enjoyed the adult card games after the newly imposed 10:00 curfew...it is so hard to be quiet when you try and when Dad keeps telling us to "shush" so we don't get the camp host mad. Poor Dad. But it was a great trip and we are all so lucky for our family and our great MOM and DAD that deal with us, kids and all, for three days of absolute chaos and absolutely the greatest memories.
