Payson Lakes Camping

This year we planned a camping trip over the 4th of July weekend. We went to Payson Lakes from July 2-4. My Uncle Chaire, Aunt Charity, and cousin Logan joined us. It was a fun group! Chris was very kind and brought his parents' canoe. It was great to have it at the lake. Claire and Makenna had life jackets so even they got to go for some rides. We used to always go to my Grandpa Wilson's ranch for the 4th of July, but the past few years we haven't had anything special going on. It was fun to have something to look forward to again. I love the 4th!

Makenna and Claire got to eat their meals at the little green table.

A couple weeks ago my parents got Claire her own sleeping bag. It has Minnie Mouse on it. She was very excited to take it camping.

Charlie's family brought up some bikes. They rode down Bennie Creek. It was very steep downhill. They are brave!

Makenna and Claire loved playing in the sand at the beach.
