Camping and Debate

We went camping at East Canyon last weekend.  It was chilly, but it's actually a nice to time to get out and go camping.  It's cooler, so you don't get all sweaty and nasty during the day.  The only bad part was that it was really windy, so it was harder to enjoy the cooler weather. Also, I had problems with my contact lenses, so I had a hard time seeing.  Oh, and there's the little thing where the starter on our Suburban went out.  We had to have Dennis come get us and take us to the auto parts store and then run back up, just in time to get there before they locked down the campground for the night.  Other than that, it was a good time!

Josh and Lexi had fun scootering down this hill.  It doesn't look like much in the picture, but it was steep enough for them to get going pretty fast.  

Lots of deer come down to the campground to feed and drink.  Lots of wildlife around this area.  They have signs posted at the bathroom that say there have been mountain lions spotted in the area.  

The view from under my awning:

I spent a lot of time hanging out under the awning Saturday morning.  I pulled up a chair, propped my feet up, and fell asleep.  It was glorious.

Josh had fun catching a fish.

I had Parent Teacher Conferences Monday night.  That made for a long day.  There has been something going every night this week.  I can't seem to ever get caught up.

Thursday night was our first debate tournament.  I love debate.  I love all those little debate nerds.  They are so adorable.  I was pushing and collecting ballots outside the tab room, and I love how they would come find me to tell me when it went well or when it didn't.
