As I write this it is the dead of winter, February 11, and I am craving the sunshine we had on this camping trip in July to Tanners Flat (about 25 minutes from our house up Little Cottonwood Canyon). We even bought a new huge tent for the trip. The girls had a blast and Kiara still asks to go camping. Grandpa Boyd, Lezli, Ken, Megan, Nick, Zachary, Alicia, and Luis were all there. Here are the girls having fun in the tent.
We did one of our favorite hikes to Secret Lake and saw salamanders in the lake. It started to rain on us at the lake and we hurried back down the mountain.
The night we got home from camping we heard "cheep, cheep" in our backyard and we discovered a baby quail. Dereck carried it down the street to a mother quail.
"In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." President Gordon B. Hinckley
"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will--to your surprise--miss them profoundly." President Thomas S. Monson

Cute little quail. Miranda loves camping too. Bentley went on a winter camp this weekend and Miranda has been asking to set up the tent and go winter camping.
