I think every year we forget just how long and bumpy of a ride it really is. But it is worth every bump and minute cause of how much fun we have!
We decided we would stop at manning first.
The girls really like to fish, but they mostly just like to reel in the pole and then make me throw it back out! So instead of putting a hook on, we just put sinkers on and let them play!
Grace really wanted a hook so she could catch a huge fish, so we told her that if she could cast she could get a hook!
It took her awhile but Kyle did put a hook on her pole and it took her about 2 casts to get it stuck and had to break her line!
The twins were more interested in finding bugs and following Grace around!
We were getting bored of fishing so we decided to go for a little walk, Grace thought she should be a model for me! She came up with this pose...
All 3 of the girls have a fascination with rocks, so where ever we go we seem to bring home lots of rocks with us.
This walk was no different, we walked about 40 feet and came back with about 40 rocks!
Since there were no fish biting we decided to ride up to barney lake and cook some dinner.
There were about a million cows around, they kept bellering, (I think my grandpa made that word up, but I still use it!) and I was for sure one was going to come walking up behind us and trample us!
Even with all the cows around we still made some dinner!
We decided that easy was the way to go, so we all ate hot dogs, chips, and lots of other stuff thats not good for you, and it was wonderful!
While we ate, we watched the rain fall and listened to the wind blow, it was cold, even though Grace is in tank top in all the pictures!
I think I turned into a desert wuss when it comes to the cold, if it is below 70* i freeze!
Grace also really liked to look for the fish jumping in the water and for deer! We did see 1 deer that was only about 100 feet away, she thought that was pretty cool!
Alaynna and Addison had alot of fun playing in the trees and collecting rocks and sticks.
We didnt catch 1 fish, Grace was kinda sad about it, but she got over it!
After the sun started to go down a little, it got really cold, fast. So we loaded up and started down the mountain.
We seen lots of deer, but only moms and babies, and we even seen 2 elk!
We always have so much fun when we got up to Barney Lake, I cant wait for next year when the girls will be a little older and alittle funner!
