Mill Hollow Weekend

The weekend of July 24th we went on our annual camping trip to Mill Hollow with Nick's extended family. On our way up we stopped at the"Train" restaurant in Heber with Grandma Janet, Aunt Jen and her kids, and Nick's Uncle Dee and Aunt Betty. Sydney loved the train that was going around the rooms in the restarant and also loved the cool train outside that you can sit on. I had to bribe her with hot tamales to get her to down and get in the car. She's a sucker for hot tamales, aka "Hot stuff" :)

Only about 1/2 of the family was able to make it to Mill Hollow this year, so we didn't have the intense dodge ball games that we've had in the past :( But we did have a good time talking, hanging out by the fire and playing horse shoes. Sydney mostly loved following around Roger and Andrea's dog, Mack.

Above is Sydney and her second cousin Aiden giving hugs to Mack. The poor dog had Sydney hanging on him all weekend long.

Okay, so it really wasn't "camping"... We stayed in a cabin and had a cafateria for our meals, but we did have a camp fire. Below is Nick and Sydney on one of the bunk-beds in the cabin.

Here we have the whole group. Starting at the top left on the stairs: Betty, Calum, Dee, Grandma Janet, and Ed. Going down the stairs is: Coral, Mckenzie, Shona, Andrea, and Aiden. Then Gavin, Jen, Sydney, Maggie, Conner, Julienne, and Emma on the very bottom of the steps. To the left of the steps is Rob w/ the football, Nick's brother Jason, and Roger with his dog Mack. And of course on the right is Nick, Zoe and me.

I had to post the goofy picture we did. Usually I think these kinds of pictures turn out dorky, but this one made me laugh out loud, so I thought I'd share it with all of you :)
