Our last campout of the summer was over Labor Day. We didn’t get out nearly as much as I had hoped this year, but next year we will try to be better. We had planned on going since July, and then my parents and their friends ended up choosing to go the same weekend, to the same campground. So we had a group of 4 families between our 2 sites. It was busy and fun.
We love the Whiting Campground up Mapleton Canyon. It is quiet, and has tons of shade all day, which is great when you have a late scorcher for the weather. The boys were excited to pull out their marshmallow guns. They had fun interchanging the parts, to make new guns.
Do you think my son has watched to many movies? I love how he is casually staring you down.
We went down to the group site for a friendly game of horseshoes. Let’s just say there was no competition. Alicia can’t throw straight anymore.
Thankfully Connor and Haden made a lot of “new” friends. Okay, they just rediscovered old friends. They were all great about letting my boys join up for hikes and exploring.
The adults participated in the Rummikub tournament. I’m proud to say I made it past the 1st round at least. Oh, and that was better than Dan did. He ended up in the losers bracket, and then ended up losing that game when a person went completely out in 1 turn. Hehehe.
A great way to end the summer. Now the trailer is cleaned and packed up. We are ready for next spring!
The look on Haden's face in that first picture still has me cracking up. What a cutie!
