After we took those fun photos of Ella in her birthday tutu, we packed up and headed to Valley of Fire for a fun camping trip with our best friends. Ella was a great sport to spend her birthday out in the dirt.
Luckily we had the walker to keep Ella from crawling through the red sand.
Minutes after we arrived, the kids started decorating Easter eggs for our big Easter egg roll the following day. This year the kids missed out on the ward egg hunt because they had soccer games, so I was excited to make up for it in a different and fun way.
We purchased an 8 man tent for the event. It was my first time camping in a tent with kiddos. What an adventure, that's all I can say.
I thought the tent would keep Ella corralled a little bit. Nope. She's an escape artist.
The Birthday Girls! Ella and Amber have the same birthday, just one year apart.
Luke and Brock are great friends. It was so fun to watch them play.
After all the egg decorating was done, it was time for 4 wheels of fun.
And after dinner we sat around the camp fire playing mafia and chatting. So fun!
It was a crazy night. A little too windy for my taste. Especially in a tent. Ella didn't sleep well, so I had a squirrely baby climbing all over me from 4 am until sunrise. Not fun. But we survived and the next day went to Easter Egg hill to roll our eggs to see which one would go the farthest. I rode in Kory's truck and this was our following entourage.
It was a climb!
But the views made it worth the climb.
Then we went back to camp, had lunch, cleaned up, and headed home. It was so fun. I love my friends so much. They feel like family and every time we get together, we have so much fun.
