Ward Campout

Even with two little tinies we decided to brave the ward campout again this year. And I'm glad we did. It was a nice overnight getaway with good food and good company. It was held at Camp LoMia (up in Pine, AZ) and since it was mid-October it was quite cold at night. Luckily G slept really well and stayed warm. On the other hand B was freezing and woke up all night long. Finally I just brought him in bed with me so he could sleep - my sleeping was over because I'm a terrible "co-sleeper."

Anyway, G loved being able to run around and explore. But even more than that he loved following the older boys (4-5 years old) and trying to do what they do. His favorite person to tag along with was Jack Gannon, another little red-headed boy that is irresistably cute. They enjoyed collecting the tops of acorns. Another of G's favorite activities was running around and singing (aka shouting) on the stage. Funny boy!

B loved to cautiously walk around... as long as I was very close by. He's definitely in the "I-need-my-mommy" stage. You would often find him doing this:

Even though it was quite chilly, I really did enjoy the changing colors of the leaves and the respite from the heat of the valley.
