This summer has really sold me (and maybe even Lisa) on Utah. We have finally been able to go to some of the places we've heard about ever since we moved here. Last weekend, we went on a camping trip to the Uintas; a place we had heard a lot about. It was awesome! It really felt like we were in a different state. Our trip was filled with dutch oven cooking, neat day trips (one of which included seeing the source of the Provo river), and fishing. It is definitely a trip worth repeating. Here are some pics of our trip.

Vanessa's favorite treat...a marshmallow

This is what Nicole thought of our trip.

Bet you can't tell who got the least amount of sleep that night.

Here we are at the Provo river falls

Lisa and Nicole at Mirror Lake (this is the source of the Provo river)

Our amazing catch...which we tried to throw back, but it's probably floating upside down right now

MOOSE!! This guy was hanging out right by our campsite

Me and Dan hanging off a cliff on Bald Moutain

Believe it or not, this is Utah. I never knew there were so many trees.

And last but not least, here's Vanessa's latest performance.

Looks like a great place to camp! Really beautiful, almost as pretty as Washington! It seems like Vanessa gets cuter every time I see her! What a doll! And Nicole is adorable, such a sweetie!
Wow! It looks beautiful up there! What a nice find! I love that Nicole is smiling in basically every picture you guys take of her! Vanessa's song was adorable!
How fun! I don't mind if you guys stay in Utah, we have family there and can visit you too! My first choice would still be WA (of course.)It's great that having two kids hasn't slowed you down at all! You guys inspire me! Keep the good times rollin'!
That looks like it was alot of fun, I'm jealous, I've been wanting to go on a camping trip for over a year now! Love the pictures, and I'm amazed too at how green it is, if it keeps up it will make moving away from home alot easier. Love the Vanessa video as well, she's soooo cute! It made me laugh. ;D lol.

oh...words cannot describe the CUTENESS of that video!! We have all watched it about ten times already. Parker keeps requesting it. He now is telling me that he wants to watch something else that Vanessa can sing. so get crackin' with another video...
i'm so glad you guys had such a great time in the uintas. mirror lake is about ten minutes away from the ranch, so that gets me excited! the pictures are gorgeous. i echo everyone else...way to get out with a newborn! you really are making the most of life and are inspiring to all of us!
What's up brother? I checked out the blog and it looks like the family is doing good. It is good to see nicole looking so healthy. We are living up in spokane and have our own blog at tckbnorth.blogspot.com. You will have to let me know how to attach the videos from youtube. Give me a call and let me know when you might be passing through spokane. We miss you guys and hope that everything continues to go well!

okay, that video of Vanessa takes the cake! if she gets any cuter, we may have to move to utah so we can have a more regular dose of her medicinal cuteness! Love you guys!
Lisa- that place you guys went camping looks georgeous! Where is it again? What a fun time- and a brave mommy with those two little girls!
