Camping @ Independence Lakes

Nate goes camping with his friends every fall at the Independence Lakes trail head and they have a blast -- so this year he took Jackobi and I near the same spot to check things out! It was the first time camping 'on our own' without any of my family and it was so fun!! Jackobi was a really good traveler and had lots of fun ... here she is cheesing it with my sun glasses!

Nate's parents dropped Casey off with us Friday night after his baseball game and he camped out with us the rest of the weekend. It was nice to have another person to help out with Jackobi! She sure loves her uncles!

The creek than ran near our camp was a big hit! Most of the pictures you can't even tell Jackobi is there because her body is tipped over the bridge so far looking at the creek!! She thought it was pretty neat!

We attempted to hike into the lakes on Saturday, but didn't make it very far with Jackobi! The trail was too rocky for her so she had to ride in this little backpack and well ... she wasn't having it! We made it a little ways though -- talk about a good view!


Lucky for us we didn't make the rest of the hike ... there was a HUGE rain storm! and we actually ended up in our tent for over an hour!! Good thing Jackobi thinks the tent is about the neatest thing ever!!

We had a great trip and are already planning another trip with Jared, Ashley and Kenzie when Jared gets home in the fall! I can't wait!!
