Summer Camping Trips

This summer started off right ... with a couple of camping trips to one of our favorite spots...Yankee Meadows!  We were lucky to be able to use Grandpa's trailer and let me tell you ...these two girls LOVED it!  So did I, to tell you the truth!  It was very nice to have to cook with and the clean up was so easy!  
For one of our hikes, we decided to hike around the lake. 


 We get about half way around the lake and we find a little stream and decided to see where it went to. 
 Taking a few pictures on the way  :)
 We came across this spot where the stream would spray a little water onto the grass.  We were amazed that the grass was basically an icicle!  

 On our second trip, we decided to hike the Noah's Ark trail.  The sign said it was only about a mile hike, so we thought it would be perfect.

 It was pretty hot that day, but everyone was happy and the girls were quite the troopers, as the hike got a little more strenuous. 
Poor little KiKi was so hot during the hike.  She never really complained at all though; but I bet you she drank half of our water  :)

I thought that this was so cute!  But sersiously, there was NO WAY that this hike was only 1 MILE!  
Here Robert contemplates the hike, the beauty around us, and strikes his pose for the camera!   
 On our way home, we stopped in Brianhead for some ice cream and decided to stop and check out some views!  We sure love camping!
