Happy Fourth of July!

Jeremy and I spontaneously decided to go camping with my family for the fourth of July. We drove up to my parents house on Thursday and met up with everyone. We got off to a late start because we went after everyone got off of work. We drove to Fort Collins and went to the Poudre Canyon. After a long drive we got to Chambers Lake campground, but it was full. We went to campground after campground but each of them were full. It was about 10pm by the time we actually go to an open campsite in the middle of no where! We had to have been getting close to Wyoming by the time we stopped. We set up the tents and stuff, had a campfire, and crashed for the night. Eva was such a good little camper!! And Matty came up for a night before he left for Steamboat to see his new roomies.



The next day we went fishing at Lost lake. And Eva caught her first fish!! She was adorable in her little poncho.



It rained on us quite a bit, Oscar-the camp dog, was shivering and wet, Eva was wet too so we wrapped up in a blanket and snuggled.

We had so much fun fishing! Everyone caught their limit!!


Here's the picture of the big catch!


On our way back to our campsite Dad spotted a Moose! Its a female moose chillen in the wilderness. She just sat there and stared at us, it was so cool!



Eva tried her first SMORE. She didn't like it one bit. She got all sticky from the marshmellows too and decided that she didn't like roasted marshmallows either. Just "little big ones" that weren't cooked. She is the cutest!! And she loves her Uncle Jeremy.






Grammy and Pop pop are the best baby sitters!!






Shanna was such a trooper! Prego and camping with a 2 year old!! David made a really cool "story" stick that he whittled.




We had a great time camping! Gotta love Colorado!
