Aspen Grove.

We started the tradition of going to Aspen Grove with the Slades every other year, starting in 2007. This was our 3rd time, but my first time of NOT having a baby with me to tote around everywhere! I can't tell you how excited this made me! Turns out, Collin didn't like his class so much and was really clingy to me, but I was lucky and had lots of help from family so I could go and do the things I wanted! Mostly, swimming, shuffle board, and badminton! Macey went to her class with cousin Sawyer and had a BLAST! She had a crush on one of her teachers, and cried when it was time to say goodbye. So cute. All in all it was a nice relaxing week! Aspen Grove is so beautiful, it was so refreshing to be in nature, but not have to sleep in nature. :)

Technically Aspen Grove is considered a Family Camp... but as you can see here... I wouldn't call this "camping". This is where we stayed- the Beckham Lodge. It is gorgeous!




 Whenever Collin would come up missing... this is usually where we'd find him, runnin' on the bridge.
 Macey and Libby, getting ready for family pictures.
Collin trying to get away, of course. 

 Collin eating a brownie, he really didn't want to get his hands dirty!
 His face... he obviously didn't care if it got dirty.
 This is just a glimpse... I try to sneak a cute picture of my husband, and the second he sees me (pic #1), he turns into pic #2.



 Macey and her class performing.
 Her leader crush: Chris
 Her other leader Makelle.
 Awww, presh. Of course Mariah found like 15 boys she liked, but the cutest one won her over. Riah's face is painted for her performance with her class. They did the Haka dance.
 Badminton! Randy can't take it easy, even when playing with kids. :)
 Grandma and Grandpa with Macey, watching the excitement. That's Joelle and cute baby Johnnie in the background!

Oh my gosh..Randy is such a turd. Pretty sure I have about 30 pics of him doing that exact same pose. Oh Danae, you guys are the cutest! When do I get to see you again?!
