Independence Day & Camping at Big Trinity Lake


For the 4th of July we stayed in Mountain Home. They had a car show at the park with a free bouncy house and cotton candy that was 3 for $1 - can't beat that!





We had a few friends over for a barbecue and then went to the golf course to watch the fireworks. It was a perfect day.


The next day we headed up to the Trinity Mountains to go camping. This is the first time we turned Warren around in the car. He was pretty excited.


After the excitement wore off, the exhaustion from staying up the night before for fireworks kicked in and they all fell asleep. It was a nice, peaceful drive.


Our campsite was beautiful. It was right by the lake so there were a lot of mosquitoes, but we used enough bug spray to keep most of them away.


Quinton enjoyed catching dragon flies. 


He loved catching fish even more!


Here's Clara doing a leaf rubbing.


Warren cried ALL NIGHT LONG, but we forgave him the next morning when the sun came up and we saw his cute face again.



There were lots of fun rocks to climb. That was Clara's favorite part. 


Barry had a hard time getting them out of this little cave. They thought it was pretty cool.


It took even less time for them to fall asleep on the way home. The best sound ever is three snoring kids in the backseat.
