Camping for a week,

A VERY fun week.

We went camping at Wallowa lake in Joseph Oregon, it was beautiful there!!

Day 1:we walked around Joseph for a couple of hours and bought candy and stuff, Joseph is fairly known for two things, its bronze sculptures and Wallowa lake which is just on the edge of town, after we did this we where all hungry so we went back to camp and ate a good lunch.

At about 2:00 Grandpa, Jacob, Julianna, Dad, Jenessa, and I all went go-carting at a place up the road from the campground, I do have some pics of us racing but I want to have room to put up some other ones too.

Day 2: Grandpa, Jacob, and I went on a 13 mile bike ride around the whole lake, (which was fun but tiring) while we where doing that Dad and the Jenessa and Julianna when horseback riding for a hour. Now I will let you see some pics of these two things. :)

Jenessa doing the same,


Day 3: Tired and a little sore from our bike ride we decided to stay at the campsite and play card games, for dinner Jacob, Dad, and Grandpa, went out to get pizza.
while they where waiting they played some of the arcade games, when they got back we ate up the pizza pretty fast and then all of us went to play some arcade game, at the pizza place they also had a croquet course so every one but Jacob, Dad, Grandpa, and I, played it.
In the course of 20 minutes Juli broke a ball and Jenessa sent her ball flying about ten feet in the air and almost hitting some other people.

Day 4: us four oldest kids went kayaking with Dad and Grandpa which was a lot of fun, but left a couple of us with sore backs and all pretty wet. ;)

Well this has taken a while so "see all ya'lls later"
