Easter Trip 2009

We had our annual Easter trip to Green River, Utah. We stay in Green River at an RV park because it's haflway between Goblin Valley and Moab. It also has power and water hookups and nice showers. This year it was just my immediate family (minus K.C. who had to work) and the Joneses and Tripps. It was a lot of fun and a great kick off to the camping season. We spent one day four wheeling near Goblin Valley and two days four wheeling out in the middle of the desert. The desert was a blast because we were the only ones there and we could make our own trails. Trav loved jumping over the dunes. The boys also had to play with their new guns when we were in desert. Trav brought his shotgun and come clay pigeons to shoot. I even hit one of the pigeons (I may or may not have been looking when I shot it). Matt brought is new .22 rifle to play with too. The weather was pretty good but we did get a little rain on Saturday. We always have so much fun when we get to spend time together. Here's some pictures from the trip.Amanda, Carter, and Mel cruising around.

Trav thinks he's pretty cool on the jumps. (It only took like five tries to get this picture.)
The obligatory dirty face picture after riding all day.

Madison decided the dye tablet looked like candy when they were getting ready to dye eggs. She was furious!! We all thought it was hilarious. (Thanks for the pic Mel. I stole it off your Facebook)

Matt and his new .22
Amanda and the .22
Even Carter got to play with the shot gun. Trav showed him caulk it which he thought was pretty cool. Don't worry it wasn't loaded and Nana said it was ok.
Carter thought the shotgun was a bit too loud though.
Annabelle is not an outdoorsy girl. Actually, she hates being outside. She stole a chair so she wouldn't have to put her precious behind in the dirt.
Trigger didn't mind the dirt at all. Here he is at 12.5 weeks and 24 pounds. When he came home at 7.5 weeks he was about 12 pounds.

Annabelle's turn for a ride.
Awww!! My babies!
