Escalante


We went to Escalante on the 24th of July for the yearly Griffin Reunion. We had a great time and this year we mixed it up a bit we went to fish lake and camped Thursday night. Then rolled into Escalante on Friday and had a great family reunion!! Here is a list of our favorite things.......
1. Camping at fish lake and having Jax start a screaming attack around 1:00a.m.
2. Jax's first time sleeping in a tent!! We called it Hotel Anderson because the tent was HUGE!! Thanks Holly and Jordan for letting us borrow it.
3. Maddison spending some Daddy Daughter time and learning how to fish.
4. The fun swings at the park on the way down.
5. Playing with the Cousins which Maddison is still talking how fun her cousins are.
6. The parade that goes down and come back and supplies us with loads of candy.
7. The wet tee shirt contest that Grandma "T" and I had..... we went all out and ran in front of the fire truck to have them squirt us with the huge fire hose!! (the best part of the parade is the fire truck that squirts water everywhere) Something that is a must once in your life time!!
7. Going to Calf Creek and playing in the water and having dinner.
8. Having fun with family!!

Looks like a lot of fun! Bear lake was Brayden's first time camping and he slept even better then he does at home. I thought he would have been more like Jax and been up all night!

I am SO GLAD I missed the wet tee shirt contest with my own mother. Gross...just the thought of it. I wondered why she looked like a drown rat in your pics. I didn't notice you so I guess you get the winning wet tee shirt prize...what did you win?

Calf Creek is one of my favorite places ever. I spent most of my summers up on Boulder. So cute! Glad you had fun! Sometime you'll have to tell me how you make those cute picture collages! :)
