Jordan's 1st camping trip

At the last minute, we decided to go out to Duchesne camping. Bryce and I haven't been out there to camp in 3 years, and Jordan has never been camping, I know, horrible parents we have been. Since our trailer is still "Out of commission" we planned to sleep in a wall tent on an air mattress, while Jordan slept in Nana and Grandpa's trailer. If anyone remembers the wind here in Salt Lake on Saturday morning, you would understand why Vern didn't think the wall tent would be a good idea.

We packed up our clothes, supplies, Jordan and the dogs and headed out first thing Saturday morning, and it was a very long drive. Jordan refused to sleep, and screamed most of the way. Thank goodness it isn't more than a 3 hour drive. We went and picked up Vern's Rhino, so we could take Jordan on a "Wino Wide" as Delaynee calls it. (Rhino Ride) I was a little nervous, as the last time we went to Duchesne, we had only 2 dogs, and no baby. How were we going to handle it all.

As usual, it went over great, and I had nothing to worry about. The dogs ran and ran and ran, and fetched sticks from the river for as long as people would throw them in. Although the river was as dirty as I have ever seen it. Absolutely disgusting, and trying to keep the dogs out of it was impossible. Even Diva thought she needed to be a water dog for the weekend. We drove into Bluebell to see Aunt Toni and Bruce, even though we didn't actually get to see Bruce while we where there. He kept calling and telling Toni, "1 more load, and I will be there." It's ok though, at least we got to see the "Bluebell Mall" as Diana calls it. Cute little everything store that Bruce and Toni own.

We finally headed back to Duchesne, because Jordan needed a nap. She was being a little bit of a monster, going off no nap. We took Diva for a ride on the Rhino first, since Jordan fell asleep on the way back from Bluebell. Her little ears were so cute flappin in the wind. When we got back, we took Jordan into town to buy some decongestant for Bryce, he picked this weekend to get sick. We ate dinner and sat around the fire, Bruce and Toni came by till about midnight and talked with us. Bryce and I ended up sleeping in Vern and Diana's trailer too.

This morning, we woke up, ate breakfast and Jordan and her Grandpa Vern danced a little to the Stray Cats. After breakfast, we took Jordan for a Rhino Ride, she had a blast, but she wanted to drive more than ride. We packed up all our crap after the Rhino Ride, by the way, I HAVE got to get one of those, they are so much fun, and headed home. The dogs have done nothing but sleep since we got here, and I am not sure I will see their eyes again till at least Tuesday. So, to sum it up, we had a great weekend, Jordan had her 1st camping trip, and I can't wait to go again. I really miss not working holidays and weekends. We were always going to Duchesne camping.
