Summer

We took the family on a last minute camping trip to Tripod Reservoir. We loaded up the tent, and all of the necessary camping supplies. We got to the lake and fished, and then we watched everyone leave for the night. We had the place all to ourselves.
It was BEAUTIFUL!
We took a little hike in the morning.
Little lone boy fishing. That is what summer is all about. He caught 4 fish this trip!
This is why we camp. No tv, no phones, no one but each other. Brother and sister time!
Our morning hike.
Nat got one!
This is all Brett did for hours.
Our campsite. We were the only ones there at night! Completely beautiful.
Kind of scary late at night.
Brett and Nat fishing!
Sweeney Family Reunion. Last Sundy in June. Lots of Nichols' family members in Camas, UT.
Nicole giving Carter some raspberries.
We LOVED this kid. Carter...just chunky and cute and squeezable. LOVE HIM!
Nat and Carter. Seriously, there were other people at the reunion,
but we just clung to the babies!
Cassie and Jessica.
Jared trying to feed Cooper a chicken wing.
Brett with Paula and Avery. Nicole and Carter. Cute kids.
The family just getting away from the sun!
Jessica and Natalie went to girls' camp this year! They had a blast, and Ethan had mom and dad all to himself for four days! It was quite a fun week for us too!

Looks like so much fun! Glad you had that family time to fish and bond, every family needs that. And guess what my word verification is...PERCH!!! That is quite ironic :)

You are so brave to tent it! We are headed for the mountains too - only I insist on bringing the motorhome! Love, love, love the fishing pictures and the fact the Brett and Jeff have the exact same job when it comes to fishing time. Hope we have the same luck that Ethan had! Here's to the rest of the summer!
