Thought for the Day
"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."
- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Day Two of Our Trip
Day two for me was pretty much the same as day one - sick. :( Honestly though, I just really sat around in a camp chair (and I enjoyed it)! I really did. You see, I'm not a complicated person (please don't argue with me on that one). I have so much fun with people I love. The kids rode around on the Quads with Bret and Grandma and Grandpa. I enjoyed watching them come back to camp chattering about the things they saw or how fast they went. Apparently, Daddy goes the fastest. And did you know that Livvy likes to sing while she's riding? Yep, she does. In fact, she sings a lot, all the time. :)
The kids love the time riding and would go out all day if they could. Here's a picture of Eli and Grandma.

We had SOOO much fun being together playing cards, hanging out, camping, and 4-wheeling. I have posted the pictures from our Camping trip - check them out. :)

Day One of our trip...
As we drove to meet Bret's parents for camping we were all very excited. I couldn't wait to camp and go 4-wheeling and spend a lot of fun time with my in-laws! The kids were so good during the 9 or so hours it took to drive. I think that by now my kiddos are used to the driving we do each year to visit our loved ones. We go at least once a year, mostly twice, and even as much as three times.
We arrived in Beaver to meet up with Grandma and Grandpa to head up to our campsite and I got so sick all of a sudden. We had to stop at a gas station on the way up before my eruption (3 times)! And even then, I barely made it to camp before being sick again. So needless to say (but I'll say it anyway) I was sick the rest of the day/night.
You know the funny thing - the moment that I felt better in my stomach, altitude sickness took over! That stuff is HORRIBLE!!! I don't like to be a pain in the bottom region, but I wasn't really good for anything. The best I could do was help a little with things and not complain.
I have to say that our camp area was BEAUTIFUL!!! We had 15 head of deer right out our tent flap every evening and morning. Our campsite was right by a meadow where they liked to come and munch. It was a very nice place. Bret has decided to come back during hunting season - they'll probably all get the memo ahead of time though...
"Run Away! The hunters are coming!" Thank You Momma Little for warning them. :)
So that was our first day. :)
