Camping Pioneer Weekend 7/24/11

Man! We thought we were out of luck finding a camping spot on Pioneer Weekend... then to our surprise (and because Eric was keeping his eyes on the lookout on his run) we came across Willow Park with room for ALL the Durtschi family to camp!

Ammon needed to learn how to build a fire out of lint so Eric dilligently taught him.
Genevieve loves her Madee!

We had all sorts of fun playing ball, roasting marshmallows, playing in the sprinkler, (getting eaten by mosquitos...not!), telling stories, playing, biking, going for walks, and just hanging out.

MichaelMan going SUPER fast on his new bike!

3 little monkeys climbing in a tree...

The coup d'etat was the next morning when we got to Bridge Jump into the Jordan River! eric showed everyone how it was REALLY done (of course we didn't let anyone else go from way up high) and the kids and cousins felt super proud and tough for having jumped! Especially since there was a little bit of a current. Eric acted as the Lifeguard for the family but the older boys needed NO help! They were strong swimmers!

Michael and Aaron being so brave and LOVING IT!

Ammon and Asher having a BLAST!
And of course, even I jumped a few times! It's one of mine and Eric's favorite past times as teens.
Happy Pioneer Weekend Everyone!!
