Memorial Day 2010

Andy was lucky enough to get Memorial Day off this year so we were able to spend sometime with his family. About 8:00 Sunday night we decided we were going to have a practice camp out in the back yard to see how Paxton would do! Unfortunately we picked the windiest night of the year and ended up only making it for 2 hours before we got too cold and went inside. Paxton slept the whole time totally oblivious to what was going on or where he was so maybe we will survive camping (on a warm night) after all! The next day I reluctantly agreed to hiking with Andy's family. They had wanted to hike to Timpanogos Cave but unfortunately when we got there it was a 3 hour wait. We ended up driving up the canyon to Tibble Fork Reservoir and hiking a few smaller hikes around the lake!
Andy definitely got his exercise that day!
Paxton loved hiking!
It is easy when you get to be carried and eat cookies and drink ice water...I think I would love hiking if I got that kind of treatment!
Don't worry this is before we started...that's why I still have a smile on my face. Two hours later I'm sure I didn't look so pleasant!
We had the family over later that night for a barb-e-que at our house! Andy did a great job cooking and we played some fun games of lasso golf and dodgeball.
What a great weekend!

the barb-e-que sounds like fun (haha, just teasing you about your spelling!!) maybe since you guys are pro hikers you can go with Jake next time you come down, he keeps begging Jerika to go with him but they never end up going:)
