Capital Reef 2011

At the last minute we decided to join my mom's family in Capital Reef last weekend.
 It was pretty fun.  It's the kind of fun you can only have with a 2 yr old that hasn't napped or eaten since leaving home. Mostly everyone there had a 2 yr old. They handled theirs a lot better than me. 
Not to mention about 4 poopy diapers a day---from JUST Jax. Seriously? Rod did that too. Saaweeet!
Love spending time with the fam though. My aunts are so fun.

Jaxton's favorite thing to do while we were "camping" was to throw rocks. Mostly into bushes and water (water is his favorite) but occasionally into the inoccent bystander.

I got a few good pictures, love these first two. These kids were so cute, they would do a little parade and just follow one right after the other. When one would do something, they all would. They had a tendency to follow Jax, he was the intriguing boy. :)

Uncle Gord spoiled these kids with sugar water the entire time he was there...Cheers.

Every time I go camping Grandpa always seems to put Rod to sleep at some point. I should make a collection of "Grampa holding Rod sleeping" pictures. 

 Jax with his cousin Arthur. Dispite the age difference Arthur was nice and played with Jax

I think every picture I have of Justin while we are camping he is making this face. It's his Go-To face for pictures.
 Excellent choice babe. :)

I love this Chanel-y girl.

My sister and bro-in-law putting down their tent....neener neener, we didn't have a tent. We roughed it Hotel(Motel) style.
(But seriously, that hotel was pretty weird-creepy-gross.)

 STICK MOMMY!! We saw a lot of those.

Happy Rod sleeping in his little bundle. I heart him.

My cute super Mom and Dad and Sister and Mai-bug.

 This isn't a good enough shot of these two; they are IN LOVE. They always play really cute together until Jax hits Mai with the nearest hard object. :(
 This camping trip it tended to be the "walking" sticks my dad made for his 3 walking grand kids..."whacking" stick was what they soon became; unfortunately (or mostly just fortunately), Jaxtons was confiscated and has disappeared.

The fam, having a very spiritual "devotional" while all the other, more righteous family went to church in Bicknell.

Cute, we love each other.
(and that's my Go-To face for pictures)

Fun, hot times. Huraay for family!
