Spring Break Camping Trip

Last week we decided to go find some warmth and sunshine. We went camping down by Goblin Valley. The kids were so excited when we told them that we were going camping. Max has a Camelbak that we got him when he was three. He calls it his "water backpack" and it has been great for him to have during hikes. Bret surprised Maddie the night before we went camping with her own pink water backpack. He bought it from the company Ben works for and Ben was nice enough to pick it up and bring it to us. Maddie was so excited!


We left really early Thursday morning hoping that if we got there early we could get a camping spot in Goblin Valley. When we got to the campground was full so Bret took us to a spot he had camped at before. At first I was hesitant to camp without a proper bathroom but it turned out to be a great spot to camp. The kids had a lot of fun climbing around on the sandstone and we had lots of peace and quiet.




On Thursday afternoon we went hiking in Little Wild Horse Canyon. It was a really fun place for the kids to explore and climb around.






On Friday we went to Goblin Valley. Max was having the time of his life climbing on all of the "goblins". We hid Easter eggs for the kids.






We roasted hotdogs for dinner on Friday night. Max said it was the most awesome thing ever to be able to roast his hot dog over the fire!


We found out that it was going to start raining late Friday night and we needed to get cleaned up for my niece's Baptism in Helper on Saturday morning so after dinner we packed up and headed for Price to get a hotel. We had a great time, it was nice to get away and have some family time.
