Camping and Fishing

Labor Day weekend we went camping at Te-Ah campground by Navajo Lake. It was a lot of fun. Crue only got lost once, Aly was the only one injured, and we got to see a deer right by our camp. I didn't take a ton of pictures but here's a few.

 Cooper was sitting on the hill by where we were cleaning up dinner playing with rocks in a frisbee by himself and having a great time. Eventually cousins joined him.

When Jared and I went in the trailer one night for bed we peeked on the boys and found their faces together. Cutest thing ever! And great blackmail picture for when they get older (yearbook picture maybe?). :)

 You can see Aly's nice line across her forehead in her hairline. I put her in her booster seat that is attached to a camp chair by the fire. She was on a slight slope but I thought she was ok. It was at Jared's brother's campsite (next to ours) and I went to get stuff for breakfast. Next thing you know she screams and then holds her breath (she's good at that). Turns out she had tipped forward and hit her head on the fire ring (which had a fire going). It either didn't break the skin or burned it instantly on just that line so that there was no blood but the scab did come off later. She now has a nice little scar there.

 Beautiful sunset at Lake at the Hills.

 Larry helping Cooper fish. He is someone Jared knows from being a customer at Bradshaws. He's a retired Highway Patrol officer I think. He was there when we got there and Cooper instantly made him his friend (he talks to anyone unless they talk to him first, then he's shy). We went the next night too and he was there with his daughter.

 Jared helping Crue. Crue's 5th birthday was at the end of September. We gave him an adult size camp chair (he's too big for the kid ones) and a fishing pole when we went camping Labor Day weekend. He loved it!

We caught Blue Gills and Jared caught a little trout at Lake at the Hills. When we were camping we went fishing at Duck Creek but didn't have any luck and then tried Navajo. Holy cow the water is low. It's also extremely muddy when you start getting close to the water. Jared was the only one to catch anything there and it was a little trout. It was a lot of fun and we decided to buy year long fishing licenses instead of week long ones so we can go whenever (you buy 2 week long licenses and it costs more than a year long license).
