Okay, for all of you who try to take your own pictures... How do you get them to give you these smiles when you have them posed just right????
Or get them to smile with their eyes open without their mouths opening up at the same time???
Luckily I got a few!!!
We had another fun year at camp Maple Dell. It has been a tradition to go to Payson, UT and stay with Jeff's entire family, including his brothers and sisters with all their families also his aunts and uncles and all their kids. This year there was about 50 people and we were all sleeping in the same room!!! This tradition started back in May of 1995. I went there for the first time as Jeff's "friend". We have all kinds of great memories at that place. 
Some of the cousin's brought their wave boards to play with. It was fun to try and get the hang of those things. I tried and tried for hours to be able to go the distance of the side walk. Jeff of course hopped on and had it down in 3 seconds flat! Big brat! Caden got really good on them but had one pretty good fall and banged up his elbow. Brinley wanted to hop on too, but the helmet just wouldn't stay out of her eyes long enough!
It is beautiful up in Payson canyon. We have a beautiful itty bitty lake to paddle around in canoes. As you can see behind Emmie it is a gorges place to be.
Plenty of fish to be caught, but all Talon could get his hands on was some water grass. Porter loved helping the poor fish get back in the water if they were in good enough shape after being caught. More then a few of those unfortunate fish ended up in our tummies! YUM
Most of all we just enjoyed being with family. We played games and talked late into the nights. We hope to be able to continue the tradition for many more years!
