camping


EY gives their employees Friday and Monday off for Labor Day. So we went camping with a bunch of EY friends Friday night to Saturday morning. Corbin had a ball playing in the dirt and making a big mess. We also went geocaching, which is basically a big hide and seek game using GPS. People hide small trinkets in waterproof containers, then they post the coordinates online so that others can find the loot. Once you find the container, you can take one of the trinkets out (Corbin picked out a little toy car), and then you replace that item with something you brought.
The only bad thing about our camping trip was how cold it got at night. We were all freezing! It was definitely one of the coldest camping trips of my life. It was so nice to get back home and to finally have warm toes again.
We got home from camping just in time to watch the BYU football game (or, according to Corbin we watched "baseball") against No. 3 Oklahoma. Clark was so excited to see BYU win! And every time an announcer would say "BYU" Corbin would go into a little chant of "BYU, BYU, BYU, BYU" What can I say, Clark has the kid trained.
And finally, if you want to take a little snooze in church, don't sit by Corbin. During every prayer today during church, Corbin would yell at Clark, "Wake up, Daddy! Wake up!" It was pretty funny.

Looks like you had such a fun time. Too bad you didn't have our sleeping bag. It's good for zero degrees.

Sounds like Corbin will keep you both awake and attentive in church ;)
