"We can’t predict all the struggles and storms in life, not even the ones just around the next corner, but as persons of faith and hope, we know beyond the shadow of any doubt that the gospel of Jesus Christ is true and the best is yet to come." - L. Tom Perry

To the Mountains



We went camping...




Porter tried to climb every tree there.





The girls were great campers. Heidi was so much fun to watch, she had a blast.








Our campsite was awesome. It was absolutely beautiful, (yet still had bathrooms). The kids spent a lot of time playing by a small creek that was right there.




We hiked to some waterfalls.


Tried to set the camera timer to get a family picture. Phil was on one side of the falls and we were on the other, Phil didn't quite make it to the other side in time. He was just glad to be in the picture.





We stopped and got some great pictures on the drive home.



And what would a camping trip be without a flat tire? We were blessed when and where it happened. We knew we needed the tires and to make it as far as we did, to make it home safely with the spare (which didn't look to great to begin with), and to have it happen at a point in the road where we could pull over - pretty amazing.
