Camping in Island Park

We went camping with some friends in Island Park a couple weekends ago and just now I decided I should post. We had such a good time! We survived camping with three kids and now feel like we can do anything. :)
It was super cold at night but we (well, the kids and Zach) managed to get some sleep, I was so worried I kept getting up and checking on them. Ben kept sliding off his matress and Sarah sat up just once and then didn't move the rest of the night. Josh slept in the swing and that was wonderful except for when Ben slid under his swing and it stopped swinging. :) good times.
I have a ton of pictures, so here goes!

Mesa Falls, Sarah couldn't get enough of it, she watched it forever!

The cuties just over the falls

Just chillin' at lunch time.

I love my family.

Ben enjoying his solitary spot. He really sat there so much.

Josh was such a good sport, if you can't tell he is on a raised of grill.

Cookin' some dogs.

Sarah and her watermelon, not sure how many times we washed it off. :)

Bringin' back some wood for the fia.

Sarah and Tevye are so smart, they brought a hammock!

Lindsi and Allie enjoying the shade.

Didn't realize this was blurry but I love how much fun they had and this shows it.

We were pretending we still do adventurous things and we jumped off the dock. Good times!

Thanks for the good times guys! We had so much fun!

Three months old!

Josh is THREE MONTHS already! I can't believe it! Can I just say that he has been such a blessing in our family! He brings me such joy! ...all of us, really. He coos and smiles and yesterday I got him to laugh because he is tickleish! Aw, babies! I love the innocence and the genuine love. Even though sometimes it is hard, it really is nice to be needed.

His smile melts my heart! and makes me so happy!
Ben loves to make him smile. (too bad the toys were in the way)

He is so chill, it is adorable.

They both just love him.

Dad's favorite thing! Josh is always captivated by him. (can't blame him for that!)

She mostly just takes the toys he's playin' with, it is nice that he doesn't care. :)

He is such a good sport because this little momma LOVES her baby!

Ben loves to hold him too, he would really hold him all day...unless he cries-Ben says that is the time I should feed him. go figure.

He's my little buddy. I could just squeeze him, and sometimes I do. :)

These jammies say "mommy's little monster", he is definitely not a monster but they are way cute jammies. Thanks Meg!

Sweet little guy!

Where has the time gone?

The Ragnar

I know it is late but I am still proud and I had to document. Zach ran the Wasatch Back/Ragnar Relay a couple weeks ago. His team came in an hour and a half ahead of schedule and had a great time. Zach was the first runner so we ventured to Logan to see him start the race. We stayed at our ACCOMMODATING & OH SO GENEROUS friends house in Nibley cause the race started in Logan at 7:20. There would have been NO WAY I could have done it with the kids if it weren't for Matt and Robyn letting us stay at their house! Thank you so much guys! Oh and get this, they had only been in there home for one week and they let us stay! Aren't they nice? (it definitely did not look like you just moved in, it is so cute!)

Zach's total mileage was like 18.4 miles or something. He did great! His hardest run was out old snow basin road and down trappers loop at 4 in the afternoon! It was so hot!
Here are some pics for ya.

I can't get over what a good sport Josh is! He was so good to put up with all the chaos of following Zach. He has turned into such a chill and happy baby!
This is the only picture I have of Julie. Zach has a very supportive family. They came to watch Zach run down trappers with us. They are such a big help and the kids love doing anything with them!

This is Zach and Sarah at the starting line. She was a little confused with the whole thing. She wasn't sure why he was running away when we passed him in the van she didn't understand why he didn't get in. It was kinda funny.

Me and my girl. Ya know she is a handful but she sure is a lot of fun!

I just thought this was funny that Sarah was trying to pee like Ben. She kept saying "pee too".

Whenever Zach has done a race, Ben has always run with him, he looks forward to it and loves it! He is so proud of his dad!

Steven will hold Josh all day, he loves the kid!

Grammy and Sarah waiting for Zach to run by.

And there he goes!

This was after his first leg. The kids already missed him and he'd only been gone an hour. :)

Hot, sweaty and happy!

Josh is in the stroller behind us, it was freezing!

Let me just say, I was lucky to get this shot. He came up way to fast for lil' ol' me! Way to go Zach! Sure love ya Babe.
