The past week Paul, Barbara, Adam, Michael and I went up to the White Mountains to go fishing. It was so beautiful and so much fun!!! We slept in tents, ate smores and foil dinners over the camp fire, we saw wild life, we played in the dirt (well...mostly Michael did that), we gazed at the stars, we went site seeing, and much much more! It was a blast and we are all itching to go again!
Paul and Adam went fishing and caught several fish. They let them all go but I know they had a really great time! Adam lost the sole of his shoe while hiking back into camp and Paul's shoes are falling apart at the seams. If I didn't know better I would say those are the same shoes he has been fishing in since he was a teenager. hehe It was a really neat fishing trip because it was 41 years ago that Paul found that secret fishing spot in the mountains. :-)
Barbara, Michael and I went into town and did some shopping and site seeing. We visited a really amazing museum inside the church building in Springerville. It was filled with antiques and art work that a woman left to the church in Springerville after she passed away many years ago. She was never a member of the church and only lived in Springerville for two years of her life, but 20 years after she left to live out her life in Switzerland she willed her and her parents beautiful things to the LDS church in Springerville, AZ. It is on display by appointment only and I HIGHLY recommend you make a visit. It was amazing!

Looks like great fun!
awww sounds like you guys have had some fun times! We miss you guys soo much and we need to get together and do something SOON! Life has been pretty hectic with everything right now....i dont know if colin has talked to adam or anything but we are moving! crazy! It's for the better and were excited about it! so anyways, we'll have to plan something though! I cant believe how big michael is getting!
so glad that you guys took your little guy camping. So many parents today are way too protective about things like dirt... wierd if you ask me. I went camping all the time when i was little.
