Jimmy * Esther * Zeke * Lilly

I love ward camp outs! They are such a fun way to get to know ward members a little better. Friday was our ward’s first camp out, and it was extra special to Jimmy and me because it was our first ward camp out we’ve been to with our own child! In previous years, we enjoyed playing with other children in the ward, but there’s nothing like having your own, and watching their expressions and excitement at being in the great outdoors!

Zeke is really amused at something, I never figured out what it was :-)

Zeke sat on my lap by the campfire for over 2 hours until 11:45pm! I loved it, and I think everyone there was surprised, he’s usually so active at church and everywhere else. He did have his 18 month shots the day before which I think was a big factor.

This picture is so cute, but Jimmy’s hand was covering the flash. I love Zeke’s smile and how he’s holding the flashlight and his bear!

Snuggling up for bed. Zeke was in a really cute mood, and he slept so well in the tent. I was nervous because he likes his own bed so much, but he didn’t make a peep the whole night!

Zeke always wants to play with the big kids.

Jimmy was shocked when he saw this picture. I think Zeke would have gone further, but it was looking too dangerous to me.

Kristin, Camden, Aspen, Bentley, and Zeke waiting for the prairie dog to pop out of its hole again.

Jimmy taught Zeke to throw rocks in the river, and Zeke thought it was lots of fun.

Thank you to all who made the ward camp out happen, we really enjoyed it!
