Summer has Officially Begun......Kinda

We've made it our mission this summer to spend most of our weekends camping!  Last summer Chandler played summer soccer every Saturday morning, making it difficult to get away as much as we wanted.  We have a South Dakota, Jellystone Estes Park, and lots of local camping on the docket!

When our friends Andrea and Tracey invited us to a weekend of camping and boating in Guernsey, Wyoming we were game!  The weather had been so cold and rainy until then, but we thought we'd give it a shot, especially with the opportunity to do some water sports.

We headed out of town on a rainy Friday afternoon, ate in beautiful Cheyenne, and landed in camp around 9.  Unfortunately our friends had boat issues and were stuck at a hotel in Chugwater and wouldn't be able to get the boat until Saturday evening.  So we spent a chilly Saturday hiking and checking out the lake.  Who knew Wyoming could be so beautiful?

Saturday afternoon the kids even got in the frigid water and enjoyed some beach time.  Brrr!

Shore fun on the floatie

They even have beautiful sunsets in Wyoming

Sunday morning the weather turned around and we were ready to go boating!  The girls loved being on the boat and tubing.  Brooklynn kept giving Tracey the thumbs up to go faster!  Little Ady could barely see above the tube, and we'd randomly get a glimpse of her bobbing head.

The weekend was a blast - boating, hiking, and hanging with some awesome friends!  Here we come summer!  Now please cooperate and give us more nice weather!
