Father and Son Campout

Our boys have been so excited for this campout. It was held in the desert near a place called Valley of Fire. I was going to make Peter write this post but he said he would not wirte more than this is it. I will try to tell some of the details the boys shared with me. Jon mentioned more than once that they camped in in the desert with thte stickers. Joey and Jon both mentioned the snake you will see a picture of below. One of the older boys found the rattlesnake and so the men tried to get it out of camp but it slithered back in two or three times so Peter and another guy decided it was time to kill it. I did not add those pictures. Peter states they let the boys see it and touch it if they wanted and tried to use it to teach them about being safe around snakes. I was relieved to know that they did what was needed to keep everyone safe.





On Saturday morning Peter took the boys for a short hike and they loved it. They both asked that next time we go family camping. We are planning to go to Utah in a few weeks and camp for a night or two in Vernal. We will be doing some fishing too. It will be Arabella's first camping trip, I hope she loves it.
