Camping at Pine Lake

We went camping at Pine Lake for 3 nights. It was so much work to get there, but we had so much fun. We went with Phil's sister Cori and their family. We haven't seen most of them for 3 years, so it was so fun to get to know their kids again. Phil's brother Dave and his family went to. The babies were better than I thought they would be. They are at a really hard stage for camping. They are both crawling and putting everything in their mouths. Nights were a little rough, but I had prepared myself for the worst. This is us on a hike through the petrified forest - it was so not worth the amount of energy it took to carry a baby to see 3 pieces of petrified wood. At the end of the hike Phil took both babies.
At the end of the hike we took a little break in the shade. The kids got in trouble for harassing the lizards - old people!

This is Brinly and Alexis, they were little buddies and did everything together. This is on a different hike up a little canyon.

We camped in an awesome spot and the lake was really close. The kids spent 90% of their time catching leopard frogs. Those poor frogs.

Hadley showing me all the cool things she was finding on the ground that she has never seen before. Besides them being a little cranky from lack of sleep I think the babies had a lot of fun.
