Every year around our anniversary Ryan and I go on a camping trip. This year we brought along our new white water raft! That's right we're boat owners now! We camped on a island in the middle of Long Draw Reservoir. It was amazing... like car camping without the car and the crowds! The dogs had the time of their lives swimming, chewing sticks, & chasing birds. Ryan fished (of course) and I napped in the sun and read by the camp fire.
Last Monday night, Jolly, Cherie, Ryan, & I took Samuel on his first camping trip. He had a great time eating dirt & pine cones. Jolly made a huge fire (as usual). We saw moose for days. It was a grand ole time!
Uncle Rudy introduces Samuel to the river. I have a feeling they will spend many more days enjoying the river together.
Today is Ollie's first birthday!! I cannot believe that our favorite nephew is so grown-up already. Last Sunday night we all took him on his first camping trip at Long Draw Reservoir. It rained & snowed for 12 hours straight, but finally cleared off for a mid-morning breakfast. It turned out to be an amazing day. Everything up there is starting to change color - my favorite was the red tundra!
