A fun day fishing

Grammy and Grampy wanted to take Cameron fishing to a cute place in Kamas where they stock the fish in these little ponds.  So you are guaranteed to catch something.  It's great for little kids and people who want to fish but not spend 8 hours on the lake and not even catch anything.  They felt bad that he didn't catch anything a few weekends ago when everyone went camping/fishing.  Cameron was super excited and said he was going to catch 100 fish.  He could have too, but since you have to pay $5-$8 a fish we set a limit at 3 fish.

Grampy tried to show Cameron how to use the new fishing pole he bought him.  But he didn't really get it figured out, instead he just pulled the pole up as high as he could to get the fish out of the water.

Sooo excited to try out his brand new "real" fishing pole!

Yay, he caught his second fish!!

Kenzie kept wanting to peek into the bucket and see the fish, but she didn't want to get too close.  It was funny to watch her get so excited about the fish, but also be a little worried.

Grammy and Mackenzie watching the boys fish.

Good thing Cameron was able to catch 3 fish super fast because it started to rain.  We headed to Heber to eat at Dairy Keen....a yummy burger and shake place that has a cute electric train running all around train tracks on the wall.  It's always packed but we got a great table and the kids had a blast.  Thanks grammy and grampy for making memories!!

Mt. Timpanogos hike

We hiked Mt. Timpanogos and did a tour of the caves.  It was a great day to hike, the weather was perfect....it sprinkled a little bit but that was nice because it kept it cool.  The hike was pretty steep and long, but Cameron was a trooper.  He did a great job hiking and didn't complain once about being tired or it being too hard.  Mackenzie got a free ride on daddy's shoulders or I held her most of the way.  She wanted to walk and did good for short amounts of time.  If we had all day we could have let her walk at her own pace.  There were railing on some parts of the hike, but not all of it.  There were some serious drop offs and dangerous parts that were a little scary to have a little kid running around.

The view was awesome!

The cave was amazing....the tour guide said its one of only five caves in the world that has that many stalagtites.

The cave was pretty cold and dark.  Cameron thought it was cool to wear his head lamp and  we were glad we brought sweatshirts!  There were a lot of tight spaces and parts we had to duck under, some slippery parts and Mackenzie had one fall.  Other than that we made it safe and sound.  I can't wait to do it again, the kids thought it was fun!

Boys camping trip

Grampy, Jeremy, Spencer, Troy and Cameron went on their annual fishing trip.  This year they went up Friday and camped over night.

The exciting news was they caught 3 fish.....that's 3 more than last year!!  The bad news was Cameron's fishing pole broke and then Grampy shut Troy and Spencer's fishing poles in the car door when they were packing up to go home.  The good news is Grampy bought everyone new fishing poles.  

Cameron loves to camp.  He had fun eating the tinfoil dinners and making smores too.

Cute Grampy

All worn out.  Can't wait for next year!!

Bike parade

Cameron and Mackenzie ready for the annual neighborhood bike parade and breakfast.  Cameron was excited to help decorate his bike.  This year I reminded him it wasn't a race (the year before he came from the back of the pack to the front and "won").  This year he hung back and rode so slow he almost wasn't able to balance....lol

Mackenzie LOVED the horses, the bounce house, fishing for candy, and the electric swing ride!  What a fun Saturday morning spent with friends and neighbors.
