Our First Exciting, Busy and FUN Camping Trip of the Summer!

I know there are A LOT of pictures but we had SO MUCH FUN that we had to share at least one picture of all of the highlights from the trip!  Enjoy!  Thanks to all of our friends and family that came to hang out and have fun with us!  It was a blast...those of you that didn't come, better come next time, you missed out!

Logan shooting his bow...he had 1 almost bullseye (it was in the circle) and two just outside of it!  He's a natural!  Dad can't wait to take him hunting!

Mike giving Logan a few pointers w/ his bow after a couple shots.

Panda says, "HELLO, do you see this thing...it's right next to me!"  There were some wild horses that kept coming into camp and "hangin' out".  It was really neat.  However, Panda had never encountered a horse before and wasn't sure what to do.   She was a good sport though!

He's sniffing me!!  What do I do?

We were camping by where the Rodeo-Chediski (i think that's how it's spelled) fire was so all we can figure were these were horses that were owned by people that let them go when the fire broke out.  Now they are "wild" horses.  He was still pretty tame and seemed pretty well taken care of.  He had shed his "shoes" but was pretty friendly with us and the dogs.  It was cool!

Our neighbor friend M. cleaning a fish (which she thought, before she started, sounded like a good idea since she had never done it before).  Once she got started she realized how "smelly" it was and what she was doing (cleaning out the poop) started dry heaving and actually threw up in her mouth but swallowed it back down (like a good sport) and kept going!  She was on a mission to prove she could do it w/ the boys!  She's awesome!  We love having her live next door!  Her, Logan and Carlee are the 3 musketeers!

Logan showing his hands after he's done w/ his fish.  M. just getting started w/ hers.  EEWWW!!!  She's saying!  Notice she's using her finger tips!  Girls!

Logan caught 1 trout and 1 bass one day.  NOTE: They don't even stock bass in that lake!  Somehow Logan managed to catch one though!

He caught another trout another day!  GOOD BOY!  You made Grandpa Cronin very proud!

Mike showing one of the friends of our neighbor girl how to use the chainsaw.  She did really well and thought it was cool!

M. our neighbor girl driving the Rhino w/ all the kids in it.  Mike's hanging off the side...they were draging back logs to cut up firewood.  

Scott "log surfing" back to camp!  CRAZY BOYS!

Carlee riding her quad.


M. (neighbor girl) riding our motorcycle.  She loves that thing (even though her mom's not real sure about it - that's why we have gear for all the kids!).  :)

Logan riding his quad.

Carlee finally got brave enough to try riding the motorcycle on her own.  She was doing really well by the end of the trip.  She's just a little too short so she can't stop on her own because she can't reach the ground!  She has to yell to Mike and "pull up" to him for him to grab on and hold her.  It's really cute!  She's loves it!

Hope you enjoyed the pictures!
