more fake camping, a great parade, & Temple Square

Last weekend we did some more fake camping with Scott's fam so that we could make it to the Salem Days parade with my fam the next morning. Good times...

We "camped" at Lost Creek on the Mirror Lake Highway. It was gorgeous up there!

 Hannah enjoyed spending time with her extended family members.

 And she really loved just being outdoors.

 Just chillin' with Ga-pa-ga.

 Our traditionally massive tin-foil dinners were especially good this year, thanks to Scott using fajita-seasoned chicken rather than ground beef. Yum!

 We enjoyed quality time around the campfire, chatting and making s'mores.

 Hannah loves her chair. We left just as the rain was starting. Phew!

After a comfortable night's sleep at home, we headed to Salem for the best parade ever. It's short, and you get tons of candy as well as otter pops, bottled water, frisbees, t-shirts, pens, and sometimes even plants.

 Hannah enjoyed a sucker on Cole's lap.

 What a cool baby! Too bad I didn't get any pics of Hannah later trying out her first play place at Carl's Jr with her cousin, Faith.

 That night, after a delicious meal at Thai Siam in SLC, we headed to City Creek for Scott and Hannah's first time.

 Then we took Hannah to Temple Square for her first time.

We love our forever family! :)

Fake camping is becoming your thing, give up the ground bed for a comfy bed, but still eat around a campfire...maybe not such a bad idea. I love the family photo in front of the temple. Sounds like a fun few days!
