Camping in the Unitahs

Brady and I left Wednesday night after work to head up to the Uintahs for a Mock family vacation.  His brother Jared and his family went up with us while his parents and brother Justin and his family came Thursday afternoon and then his brother Ryan and his family came up Friday night with Craig.  It was so great to have the whole family together and I am so in love with all those kids.  Brady and I were supposed to stay til this afternoon, but last night it rained so hard we packed up and left and got home at about midnight.  There was great fishing and enjoyable weather for the most part.  I am a lucky girl because I do have great in laws and get along with them great.  Here are some pictures of our trip.  

A great view of what we got to see the whole time.

Kasen trying his hardest not to pose for the camera, but I did get a smile

My first fish I caught this trip
Brady wanted me to hold up the fish for a picture, this is the first fish i have ever touched and when I went to pick it up it jumped out of my hands and I freaked out, thus my face in this picture.
Another fish I caught this weekend (which was the biggest of the weekend)
My cute husband fishing again

Everywhere you look it was just trees and nature.  Everything was gorgeous!


Brady and I on the way up...wow I look scary, but who gets ready to not take a shower for 5 days?!!

Looks like fun Laurel. You better get use to it with a little boy on the way, you will be camping all the time. Put your foot down and get a trailer like I did!

Steven and I go to the Uintahs about twice a week just to get away. Isn't it beautiful up there? The only thing I worry about are the bears. You are brave "tent campers" (as I call them) because I would only go in a trailer--I would never win a fight with a bear! Hope your feeling okay. How did the baby like camping?

I'm with Mindy, when are you going to start growing a little baby bump? Smallest pregnant person I've ever seen!! So cute! Looks like a fun weekend with Brady's family!

Brad and Darci said...

How fun for you guys! Sorry that you got rained out, but way to go on catching the biggest fish!!

What a fun family trip! I can't believe you slept in a tent and you're pregnant! What a good sport. That's awesome you caught the biggest fish and I too hate touching fish. gross. They're so slimy and weird feeling.

So have you picked a name for the bun in the oven?

You go prego girl! You are such a trooper for camping in a tent! I complain just normally in a tent and you are pregnant! You are such a cute camper. I bet it was fun to be with his family. Really I am mostly proud of you for touching that fish! It was huge! They are so nasty to touch! Anyways, I just added a video of Brady (your Brady) to the top of my last post. I am sure you have seen this a million times but it is of him flipping. Brady and I can't wait to watch Prison Break with you two! Oh, and I agree, it seems like we haven't talked in SO long! I miss you!

You go girl! All I can say is give me a hotel and room service...you are a much better woman and wife than me! Glad that you had a good time. Can't wait to see you this weekend!
