Camping in Pine

We had a wonderful weekend in Pine with Skylar's family! They traveled from Utah to meet us there and we had a blast! -We missed the Phelps though!




The first night we were there, we saw some Elk! There was a bunch of them and after they left, there were a few deer that came by also!

Grandma Stock showing Daisy how to blow the pin wheel.


Slade holding a lizard! I think it was dead at that point. He had so much fun finding bugs!


Slade holding on for dear life on the swing!

Eww! More bugs for Slade. Those are cicada shells, and they are SO much bigger than the ones we find by our house!


Saturday, we hiked down to the Tonto Natural Bridge and had a picnic. From left to right: Marlee, Lyndsay, Bostyn, Derek, Slade, Grandma Stock, Beau, Skylar, Daisy and Grandpa Stock.

Father and Son. I think Skylar looks a lot like his Dad and it's really cute how similar they are. They both have sunflower seeds in their mouths in this picture! Cute cheeks!

Marlee!! She is so good with the kids, they all LOVE her!

Slade with Uncle Beau! Slade loved being chased by Beau and following him around!

Skylar and Daisy as we hiked down to the falls. Grandpa and Grandma Stock in the background.


Father and daughter... She is such a daddy's girl!
Slade finally held still long enough for me to take a picture of him and he was pretending to be an animal in a cage...

Grandpa Stock and Slade

Marlee and Beau took Slade closer to the falls and they ended up getting wet!


Daisy sharing her sucker with Bostyn... Below, they were REALLY sharing the sucker!

Brothers! Beau and Skylar... I think Skylar was waving to Daisy and not the camera! Haha!

Grandpa Stock and Slade! Slade had to be with either Grandpa Stock or Beau at all times...

Daisy showing off Slade's hat!

Grandma Stock and Slade

The friendliest squirrel I have ever seen! It is also well fed!


The kids and the squirrel. They had sunflower seeds set out for it and we had them sit still so it would come close.


Slade probably had more fun with the squirrel than anything else!

Grandma Stock being a cheerleader! She did pretty well, too!

There are SO many more pictures from this trip, but I tried to choose the best ones. We really did have a lot of fun and hope to do it again. Thanks to Derek's family for the cabin's and the nice hot shower I was able to take every morning!! It was nice to get away and hang out with family we don't see as often as we would like. Thanks for a great weekend!
