Heber Valley Camp


These are pictures from Oct. 10-11th when we went with some of Eli's family to the Heber Valley Camp. We had never been up there and we thought it would be nice to stay in the cabins with family and do some of the activities like the zip line. Unfortunately the weather decided otherwise and the activities were cancelled because of the snow. It was a nice drive, the scenery was beautiful, and the cabins stayed nice and warm with the space heaters. The kids loved the snow as long as they could stand the cold and then it was back inside to warm up.

I had to buy new winter coats and they are a little big, but at least they'll probably last two years. Beck figured out real quick that snow is fun to eat.
Kate loved spending time with her cousins. We were so glad Dani and Tom and their kids could come. We've missed them so much since they moved to Denver. Here are Brookie, Kate and Jennie enjoying the campsite as it started snowing. You can see part of the cabins and beautiful colors in the background.


Bacon Wrapped grease filled donuts anyone?

The guys were feeling adventurous (that or the cold air was getting to their brains) and they decided to try a new culinary creation with the left over breakfast. They thought as most guys do, "bacon wrapped anything is good and there are some left over mini donuts so lets try it." The left over donuts soaked up the bacon grease in the pan like a spounge which was not as good as they thought it might be. However later that night we had a couples mystery dinner party and the bacon wrapped cream cheese jalapeno poppers Candi and Kelly made were delicious!

The Heber Valley Camp was a fun experience even though it took me several days to recover from the sleep deprevation and to unpack the car.
