Spencer 2013

Sadly, this was our last camping trip for the year.  We went to Spencer with my parents and Doug and Marilee's family.  Our little family were the first to arrive on Thursday and everyone else came on Friday.

Hank is just the right size for this bike, but still doesn't ride without training wheels.  Next year for sure!
Since it was a holiday and the start of hunting season, there were not a lot of camp sites to choose from.  We ended up parking our trailer and riding the 4wheeler and motorcycle's to find a spot.
There were no tree's by the road to hang a sign, so Sean fashioned up this little tee pee to let my family know where we were.
Gus is a very good little bike rider, but this was his first time riding a motorcycle.  He did really well for such a little guy.  He only crashed into the sage brush once and gave Doug a good work out. :)


It was very hot for labor day weekend and very dry.  We only went on one 4 wheeler ride because we couldn't handle the dust.  We went down to the creek a couple times so everyone could cool off and get away from the dust.  The kids had fun hunting for frogs.


Gracie and Hallie decided they wanted to make a fort for themselves.  Grandpa Packer decided to help them out.  He even got the chain saw out to help them cut wood.
 
Inside their fort.
What an awesome Grandpa!!

More time down by the water.  The little boys decided to take off their pants.  Rhett got a little stuck in the mud.
 
The boys had a lot of fun playing with their trucks.  This is exactly what boys should look like. :)
Everyone was so excited to have their picture taken at the end of the trip.  We were all looking good!  :)



Until next year.  It is going to be a long winter!
