Camping with the Orr's and Bailey's

Every year we try to go camping at least once, and the one time we went happened to be earlier in the year. May! So it was still kinda chilly up in the mountains, especially at 7am! 
We went up Friday evening, got all set up, and just hung out. Aunt Kimi and Uncle Matt weren't feeling very well, and Anna doesn't like camping, so the first night it was only Tyler, Jacob, Neinah and I camping in the site. The Bailey's would eventually be coming up Saturday night. 
Around 3am, it started raining, but we stayed dry, luckily! 
Now, when it comes to camping, no matter where I camp or how comfortable I am, I have this problem where I wake up every couple hours and check the time, hoping it's morning and time to get up. I love everything about camping except the actual sleeping part. I've never gotten very good sleep while camping. So, unfortunately with it starting to rain, I had an even harder time staying asleep. Oh, that and the fact that I was 27 weeks pregnant! Finally at 7am, I figured it was late enough to get up and see if everyone else wanted to head back to the Orr's to hang out until it stopped raining. 
So Tyler, Jacob, Neinah and I went back down to wait out the rain. Closer to noon, we headed back up, this time with the Oscarsons' canopy for if it rained again. 
Lucky for us it didn't rain the rest of the time we were there so we were able to just relax. 

These pictures I took around 7:15am when we were on our way down the canyon. I love the mist!!






We stuck our water bottles in the creek to get cold! 



Our tent! 














Had to do a little censoring because SOMEONE had a plumber's butt!







 such weirdos...but I love it!



Adam wanted a haircut, so Ryan obliged. It was hilarious actually. 


Eventually, Rachel insisted that she just do it for him since Ryan actually kinda sucked at it. Hahah!



Jacob was taking forever napping in his tent so Adam and Ryan snuck down and collapsed his tent on him!

The boys carved out some of the inside of a huge log and started a fire in it! It was pretty cool.
