more of the 8 day camping trip

So Jaren's friend Kasey came out to Smiley Creek on Sunday and had breakfast with them all. This is the first time he has ever meet the boys. Jaren was sick (like throwing up sick but that is a whole nother story)that day and sadly had to leave our 3 roudy boys in the care of Mr. Lindsay who only has one 14 year old son. Im sure he is well behaved especially compaired to my boys. Jaren was there of course but had to keep excusing himself so he could make trips to the bathroom. Aaahhh! doesnt this always happen when mom isnt there??? Anyway Kasey brought a friend from Colorado. Jaren just happened to have his Silverton & Durango railroad hat on. Kasey's friend commented on the hat and wouldnt you know that he owns a railroad that we are planning on riding this fall over potatoe harvest. It was like Keller meeting his verion of Indigo Girls!!! He was giddy. This guy gave Jaren his number and said to call him when we get there and he would make sure that Keller could ride in the engine with the conductor!!! How awesome is that! He is super stooked. Anywho here are some more pics of the trip.
The scenic pics are of an area called Bayhorse or Loon Creek. The boys were hiding from the rain a bunch while they were out there. If you know Jaren at all you know that the boy loves a good drive in the pickup (or whatever vehicle is close). They boys figured out how to run the self timer on the camera. Which is good because now we have pics of all of them together. They found some great hot spring as well. The one of them all in a big pot....well it looks like Jaren is cooking them up for diner. Love it! Well I thought there were too many pics with some of the cutest camping faces this momma has ever seen so I had to include them all.
