The Great Outdoors

After weeks of preparing we finally got to go on our yearly Crockett family camping extravaganza! We headed up to the Tetons this year to Green River Lakes campground. The scenery was SO beautiful, this picture does not even do it justice. We had a good time, even though the bugs were insanely bad and camping is always a little bit hard with a toddler.

(in case you were wondering why Seth looks strange, it's because his aunt Erin painted his face with the face paints. He was going for a skeleton look. lol!)

Abby just loves to wander and I was pretty worried the whole time that we would lose her in the woods somewhere. But we tied a bell to her shoe so we could hear her wherever she went. It also had the added bonus of scaring away bears. :)

Shawn got to take some fly fishing lessons from the master, my Dad, and even had a couple of bites. But no fish were actually caught, much to my disappointment since I love fresh cooked trout in the mountains. ***sigh*** Oh well, maybe in a few weeks since we have another trip planned with the Shipleys.

Here's some more pictures of the beautiful scenery:

There is something about the mountains that just takes my breath away! I think it feels like a little piece of heaven (except I'm hoping that in heaven, there aren't any angry bears or pesky mosquitoes.)
