This past weekend we went camping with the whole family - all 11 of us! Our group traveled south to Payson Canyon found the perfect private spot for all 3 tents and enjoyed 36 hours together of bliss.
I went to bed dreaming that this must be what heaven is like; the beauty of the mountains, wildflowers, aspens all with my family near.
While we were there we went kayaking on Payson Lakes, the kids and brave adults went swimming, we roasted hot dogs over the campfire, and stuffed ourselves with s'mores, the kids played hide and seek, the grownups marveled in the stars, and all took a perfectly short nature hike to a waterfall.
We went home sunburnt, smelling of campfire, and dirty but happy; very happy.
I can only hope this is the first of several more campouts in heaven.
