Memorial Day 2013

We had a really fun weekend for Memorial Day!  We went camping at East Canyon for Friday-Saturday with my family which was great!  It was Baylie's first time camping and she did pretty good!  We had a "dutch oven contest" that Nate and I totally dominated!  We made burritos for dinner, I was hesitant to try something new but we loved them!  My parents were in charge of dessert.. which didn't work out so well!  It had great potential but something went horribly wrong.. Brandon and Lindsay were in charge of breakfast, which was really good but the official judge (Dad) had to admit we won!  Woot!  Maybe next year folks! :)
We had fun roasting marshmallows and just sitting around the fire chatting!

Baylie was so happy to be outside!

Just chillin while Mom and Dad set up a tent!


Nate eating "Celestial Fruit"..his favorite!

This is what I woke up to.. it was quite chilly!




Mom had to do something creative with a T-Shirt for work to win a contest, I think wakeboarding counts, right?  She totally won!


It was also Baylie's first time on Pop's boat!  I was so nervous that she would hate her life jacket and cry the whole time.. but the opposite was true!  She LOVED it!  And then fell asleep... typical!
The water was still really cold so everyone wore the dry suit with their sweats underneath!  Mom's work was doing a contest for a trip to a spa, the goal was to do the most creative thing with your T-Shirt!  She wakeboarded in it!  Until we hit a rock.. shoot!  But all was well and we provided a fisherman with quite a laugh and Mom won!  (Lezbehonest, probably because her boss felt bad for us... but hey! Whatever works!)

On Memorial Day we did the typical Hyde family pool party! This year it was at my Uncle John's house. It was so fun to get together with everyone. It seems like we just don't get to see them as much as we used to!
Just a few of our favorite people!

This girl LOVES the water!

And she loves her Pops!

Mmmm!  Free slurpee day!  My cousin Syd gave her a taste and she just wanted more and more!
It was such a great weekend!  We love doing things like this, even if it's nothing big and fancy it's just nice to be with family!
