Goblin Valley

We took a trip down to Goblin Valley for the weekend. It was our first camping trip with both girls - Scott and I were trying to remember the last time we'd gone camping. We tried last year but Scott had such a nasty allergic reaction to the horses we packed up and went home. We pulled out our camping gear from all the camping we'd done seven (yes, seven) years ago, plus the bigger tent we had to get and extra kid gear and headed out.






Mercedes had a great time hiking around in the 'goblins'. Aspen proclaimed "I love Gobble Valley!"








At the campsite; yes we all fit into that little bivy behind the girls. JK. The days were nice but it still got down into the 30's at night. BRRRRRRRR. We ate our cereal in the car with the heater on. When I told Mercedes we were going camping she said "I don't want to go camping; I want to stay home and watch iCarly." She changed her mind after we got there.
