It’s just not summer vacation unless we start with our annual camping trip to Silver Springs with Candy and her family. I’m totally up to date. This is June 2010.
For some reason this pictures reminds me of an old pollock joke. I never actually knew what a pollock was when I was a kid-- I pictured triangular little cartoon people with stick arms. But how many does it take to cut through a good sized log anyway?
Candy prefers to push over dead tree stumps to cutting them down.
This is Jim’s job. Figure out once again how to get Candy’s fancy schmancy new tent up.
Lincoln is just waiting for something to schmack.
Ahhh. Home sweet home – for the Troxels, anyway.
There’s no end to the games these ladies make up. But sometimes they are so coordinated and fast that it’s actually fun to watch.
This is pure unadulterated excitement just waiting to explode.
Reya just loved being included in anything exciting, interesting, or dangerous to a baby’s health that went on.
Shonda and Billy have one cute little girl. So do Candy and Dana.
It’s nice to have an Aunt Cosette that just loves being slobbered with kisses.
Fire Power. Yes, we love it. Especially the piles of laundry that smell like smoke just waiting for some attention after the party’ s over.
Off on our hike that only the more mature part of the group appreciate solely for the scenery.
Tough call on who is cuter. . .
I just don’t see what the problem is hiking beside beautiful little waterfalls and noisy rushing water even though there is no amazing destination. You can tell I was never a kid.
We got stopped checking out a massive tree that had been hit by lightning.
Lincoln is sure he has taken his last step for the day.
Jarin showed up on his motorcycle, having driven hours clear from Marysville through nasty Seattle freeways—and all in one piece. This doesn’t beat knife throwing for excitement, but much more impressive.
My guess is that they just saw the eency weency spider going down something that it shouldn’t have.
My next guess is that someone just saw something on someone else’s face that didn’t belong there and neither one of them knows which one has that something on their face and so they just keep wiping.
Nice end to a camping trip. And that’s all that I feel like doing at three in the morning when I can’t sleep.
Oh mom, that looked like so much fun, I'm sad I missed it. I love Dallin's face. That was a great picture. and you got really good ones of Reya. and the girls. and of Dad. the 3 of them with the log made me laugh.
