First official camping trip of 2008

Two weekends ago, the Ulrich family all went camping for the weekend up in Heise. It was a great time and the weather was perfect. We loved being able to play in the sun, the dirt, riding 4-wheelers, and just hanging out as a family. It was a great time. We were able to celebrate Scott's mom's birthday while we were there. She loves to be camping on her birthday, so it has become a tradition to go this weekend and celebrate while we are there. We love to do it and always have a great time. Here are some pics from the occasion.

Koen was excited about his first camping trip!

The kids always love to sit on the 4-wheelers and pretend like they are driving. (Austin, Carsen, Kamdyn, Macie, and Makenzie)

Austin, Carsen, and Nate (Where in the world does Austin get those nostrils? I think I have a good guess)

Some super cute neices love taking pictures! (Kamdyn and Macie)

Austin checking out his competition. He is very competitive - can you tell?

Teaching Austin to go potty in the wilderness was a little more difficult than we thought it would be (even though there were trailors to go potty in). Thanks to Brady and Edee for providing the child potty. That sure was handy and very convenient.

Austin loves it when Scott takes him for a ride. He loves being with daddy!

Scott went fishing that Saturday morning with his dad and he caught a trout for his mom for her birthday breakfast that morning. She was so excited! Way to go, Idaho! (inside joke - sorry!)

Whenever one of the adults would go to get on a 4-wheeler, all the kids would run over and say, "I want a ride" and so we had many mini rides with as many kids as possible (Scotlyn, Austin, Carsen, Brady, and Makenzie)

These two are little buddies. It sure is fun to see them grow up together. They are almost 2 months apart. (Austin and Carsen)

Our first camping trip as a family of 4. WEIRD!

Katie, I saw your name on Brandy's blog and wanted to say hi. It looks like you had a fun time with family camping. I can't believe we both live in the same town and never see each other. I guess we all get busy with our own lives. Cute family!!!!
