FYI

I know I have some baby showers coming up so I just wanted to let everyone know Tony and I have registered mostly at Target and a little at babies r us. We do need a lot of things being new parents. So if any one is interested you can look at those stores.

Our August camping trip to China Meadows

Our family went camping this year to China Meadows and for a first time, in a really long time, we all made it up there (just not all at the same time). For some of us it was trickier getting there than others. Tony and I were following my parents up there when all of the sudden my dad's truck started smoking. So we pulled over and it was gushing something, I don't remember, but it was not good. Luckily at this point we had just passed Morgan, which is were my great grandma Bell's house is, so we turned around and went to her house. My dad parked his trailer in the field next to her house unhooked and we drove home. My parents tried to find a truck the could rent for the weekend, but no such luck. We were just going to bag the whole trip, but Tony and I talked them into bringing their car and staying with us in our trailer. Not ideal but why ruin your fun, so they finally decided to do that. So back up Weber canyon we went. Finally we made it camp. We all had a blast and I think my family was glad they decided to come. We both learned a very important lesson. My parents learned sometimes you don't need everything that you pack, most of its overkill. I learned you can't always rely on your parents to have everything you need. It was a really good time and Brandi's kids are so cute and always make any trip fun. She has really good kids and they are great campers. Here are some pictures from the trip... The colvert that we jump into every year. This year it was really cold so no one jumped in. However Bentley did get pushed in, it was pretty funny!
