Memorial Day Weekend!

My family always has a family reunion/campout over Memorial Day. This year we went to a place in Idaho near City of Rocks. Cody has been so busy with work lately so we didn't get there until Saturday afternoon. It was a fun time though. We like to trailer camp. Last year as we broke something under our trailer so Cody had to fix our water line. Unfortunately when we got to camp we found out that there was another leak and we weren't able to use our water the whole time. Some fun things we did this year were the Amazing Race where we had to pop popcorn in a dutch oven, find flags, bear hunt, toss horseshoes, label the prominent peaks in Utah, collect litter, collect firewood, among other things. Cody and I didn't win, Cody quit before we were done anyway. We also had a game of Family Feud. Cody put up a swing and a zip line for the kids (he works in the amusement ride industry) so the kids really enjoyed playing on those. Corbett loved being dirty and outside all the time. We went for a few 4-wheeler rides. It was a fun weekend....we're glad we're home though and not going anywhere else for a while. Cody did have to leave this morning though, he has a job in Alabama.

Looks fun..I can't believe Cody dropped out the competition..although your family could be scary when competing! Hope it didn't rain.
