Weekend Getaway

This Memorial Day weekend Ty and I went camping with our good friends Brock and Krystle. We went to Echo, UT (my parents own some land up there...it is the birthplace of all of my childhood camping memories). We made "hobo" dinners as soon as we got there...only to realize that after we had made them I had somehow forgotten to cut up the carrots (one of the best parts of the whole dinner). Bummer...but we survived. It was a delicious dinner...I hadn't eaten a "hobo" dinner since girls camp some 8 years ago, so it was just as good as I remembered. After dinner we made S'mores (naturally). I wish I had taken a picture cause they were delicious!!! The only way I will eat a S'more is this...first you have to have the right ingredients: Mallows, Graham crackers, and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (I know it sounds weird but IT IS THE BEST). Once you have the ingredients you set your peanut butter cup next to the fire so it is nice and soft (do this while you are roasting your mallow) once the mallow is ready, grab your peanut butter cup, place it on the cracker and then slide your mallow in between the two crackers (for a better taste then set the new S'more sandwich over the fire to get that cracker nice and toasty). After all of that you are ready to eat and enjoy. YUP, that's the best I know. The rest of the weekend was filled with awesome four-wheeling. It was beautiful. We came home Saturday night and then went back up Monday morning with our friend Ben. It rained most of the day, but I didn't complain, I absolutely LOVE rain. I just can't describe how beautiful it was. It was a great weekend and I was sad to see it leave.

It is true, we totally did. I was actually up there looking at the good ol' house (or what's left of it) and remembering all the good memories. I wonder if our vegetables ever grew ;) Ah the good ol days! I miss em.

Wasn't it you and Dan who taught us about the right way to eat s'mores?
