(Yes, sadly that is a picture of 3 boys gathered around 1 boy playing a DS...it is shameful).
Chad had a birthday while we were with family. We got to sing happy birthday over his 4 birthday pies.
Here's Gabe enjoying the whipped cream from the pie, the best part.

Camping with family, it is the best way to go. We got to camp one night with Chad's family; Relin, Eric, and Kenneth's families were all there. Bob and Beth joined us for hobo dinners and then went home to sleep in comfy beds. It got a little toasty during the day which tried our patience, but the bugs...oh the bugs!! Every fly that has ever hatched has hatched it Utah!! Flies and gnats all over our food! All over our faces, in our hair, in our tents. It was the cause for more than one melt down by our obsessive-compulsive daughter and her germ phobias. But we made it and she did not die from filth, as was her fear.
Braeden came up with a plan, every time a fly landed in his mop of hair, he caught it and killed it. Thanks to Braeden we are down a dozen obnoxious flies in the world.
Here he is with one of his victims.
We had s'mores and a raging campfire, (it's the only reason I bothered going). There was a stream nearby which entertained the kids for a while.

On our way home we stopped at a Pizza Hut, where the waitress so graciously offered to take our picture so we never, ever forget eating in Richfield, Utah :)
