Staycation 2012

So Chops is always on a mission to find us suitable camping arrangements.  Since we have two little kids, and I'm not as spry as I used to be, a tent just doesn't cut it. We started out with a small camper shell, then we went through two or three more. I've lost track. My husband has an uncanny sense of how to make a quick buck using KSL. He finds an awesome deal, we play, use, sleep in it for a season and then he sells it for often double (or, you know. like ten times) as much as he paid for it. He also has no shame haggling the price of an already killer deal. Sometimes its embarrassing, sometimes I feel like offering the seller some money afterwards but we have picked up some great deals due to his vigilance. So anyways, we were able to pick up a small camper trailer for an excellent price and decided to take it out on its maiden voyage to Buraston Ponds down by Mona. It was a cute little spot, way too windy to swim but it was fun to watch the Scout groups and singles wards jump off the rope swings. After that we headed over to the Young Living Lavender Farm where we lucked into their fall festival. We had Lavendar ice cream, Addie attended a fairy party, got her face painted a very girly pumpkin and of course, the pony rides! It was a fun day, just hanging out with the fam.

 We didn't catch anything fishing...








 Addie took this pic of the fairies and wasn't too sure about being in a pic with them
