Warning! Picture Overload! I like them all and couldn't narrow it down!
We went camping (again) this weekend up to Halfmoon Creek in Leadville. It was kind of a spur of the moment trip with my parents. I mean really- who is crazy enough to go camping on the 4th of July along with half of Colorado?!? We are! We went beyond all of the paid and packed campsites up a four-wheel drive road and found "the perfect spot". It was so pretty- next to the river, away from other camp sites, had a big fire pit, perfect views- it was only lacking a bathroom. I also discovered that I am a good camper for a 2 night campout- I wake up cranky on the 3rd day- it stinks (literally) being dirty for that long!
It may appear that I took a picture of some random trees but no- look closer, Jason is up there! The kids thought that this log propped up like a bench made for the perfect horse!
Declan was thrilled when we actually poke a stick around in the fire. That was not easy for this paranoid Mama to watch!
I'm not sure who was more excited that my parents could come- me or the kids! It is hard work taking kids, especially a one-year old camping and so it was nice to have the help! Thanks Mom and Dad!
Declan wanted to play in the water so bad and he did so good just looking and throwing pine cones and logs in until it was actually time to get in. Then, once he could get in it lasted all of 2 minutes and he was crying because it was too cold- not that I blame him- I wouldn't have wanted to get in either!
Ladies, if you're all wondering how you can achieve this style I will let you in on a little secret...ready- here it goes, first spray in some bug spray and then a few hours later some sun screen, repeat the process every few hours for 3 days!
And of course, Declan's favorite part of the weekend...riding dirtbikes! And finally, we'll be home for a couple of weeks- just long enough to let everything air out before the next big annual Kovach family campout!
