Antelope 2014

The first weekend in June, we went with the McBride family to Antelope.

 Hank and Sari went on a little adventure around the creek.

 It didn't take long for Preston to get really dirty.

 Dewey and Sayer wanted to help chop wood.

On Friday, we went on a hike to Iron Bog Lake.  The kids rode in the back of Grandpa's truck until we got to the trail head.  It was a bumpy ride.

 There were several little spots where water was coming out of the mountain onto the trail.  Sean carried Hank over all of them.

 Half way there.

 Here we are at the lake.  It was 1 1/2 miles to the lake.  Hank and Sari did so good.

 We stopped to eat lunch and relax on this big rock.

 Later that night, after the McDermott's arrived, we had a grilled cheese competition.  Sean made one with cream cheese, jalapenos, bacon, and monterrey jack cheese.  It was amazing!!

 Grandpa and Grandma made sliders with ham, greer cheese, and mustard.  This one and Sean's were my favorite.

 Amy and Jake made 3 different sandwiches.  Jake was creative and made one with macaroni and cheese and hot dogs.  Kandice made one with apple slices and caramel.

 This is Grandma's game face.

 Hank and I were waiting in the camper for everyone else to come to bed and we decided to take some pictures.  He wanted me to be a fish and he would be a shark.

 The next morning, we went on another hike to Brockie Lake.  Grandma stayed back with most of the little ones, but Hank decided he was coming because he wanted to go fishing.

 We had a few pit stops along the way.  :)  I couldn't resist!

 This is what we saw when we first got to the lake.  It was half froze over, but we still had a few areas where we could fish.  This was a 2 mile hike to the lake.  The little boys spotted a mountain goat when we were almost to the top.  It was a little too far to get a good picture.

 Nobody had any worms, so we used spinners.  Sean caught 3 fish and let each of our kids cast one in.

 Dewey was first, but he wouldn't touch the fish.

 Hank was next.  He was so happy to catch a fish, that it made two days of hiking worth it.

 Hallie gave it a good try to catch her own fish, but no luck.  We ended up making a fire and cooking the fish before we left.

 Before we got ready to leave, we decided to take a few pictures.  It started to get really cold.

This was such a fun camping trip and we can't wait to go again!!
