Labor Day weekend

Sheldon, Abbie and I went up to the Uintas with Sheldon's family, and the Andersons, and the Creamers. We had a lot of fun and it was a well deserved camping trip. Sheldon was able to ride his dirt bike a couple of times. The best part was spending time with family and of course fishing!

We went fishing up at butterfly lake. For the past 3 years I have gone I have never been able to catch a fish up there. I have when we have gone to Burnt Fork fly fishing but never at the lake. Well this year was different. I caught a big albino rainbow fish and a small rainbow. Abbie was talking and flapping her arms up and down getting so excited. She wanted to hold the worms but we didn't have any wipes to wipe her hands off after because she always ends up putting them in her mouth.

Oh my goodness, we had so many bags for just Friday night to Monday morning. Sheldon and I had one bag for our clothes, cooler for drinks, and another bag for snacks. Also, we had Sheldon's helmet and gloves for his bike, 3 pillow one for each of us, and chairs. Abbie on the other hand had the rest of the car packed. One bag for clothes and a couple of blankets, one for toys, a pack 'n' play, and one full of food seeing how she can't what we eat yet.

We had so much fun even when it rain the last night we were there and almost the whole way home. We even had snow in Evanston. Abbie the whole way home except for about 15mins, was asleep. It is sad that the camping season is over until next year.
