Shady Dell 2012

This past weekend we packed up the car, all 6 of us, plus both dogs, and headed up to Shady Dell campsite in the Uintahs. We had so much fun, the girls had great attitudes and the dogs were in heaven. Sean slept in one tent with the older girls and I slept in another with Hazel. Neither of us got much sleep. Sean got to experience Olive's random night terrors and Lucy's need to charge positions at least once every hour and I got to try to sleep with my first baby that has hated sleeping in a tent. Aside from getting no sleep we had a blast playing in the sand, painting rocks, hiking to fairyville, and watching Mikka re-live her puppy glory days fetching logs as big as her from the middle of a lake. We ended the trip with yummy burgers and shakes from Dicks drive-in and then got yelled at by an elderly woman because Mikka ran onto her lawn :) Good times.
Nothing re-focuses me on my family more than spending time in the outdoors with them. Clarity is truly found in the mountains, I can't wait to head out again.
