Saturday night my sister's family and ours drove up Big Cottonwood Canyon and had some tin foil dinners and s'mores. It was lots of fun, especially for the kids. They really enjoyed it.
I was thinking though as we pulled off, with kids crying because they were tired and didn't want to leave, about how much easier it was to do that when I was single. I remember when I was living in Draper and we would get a big group of friends together and go up in the canyon and build a campfire and sit around it singing songs by the guitar. Oh how life has changed. It makes the experience a whole different ball game. Love my kids, love my husband, but miss my irresponsible/no commitment self a bit.
The pacifier twins! Okay not really they look nothing alike but they both sure enjoy their binkies!

Beautiful area and pictures, sounds like you had a great time.
I honestly don't remember being single!! I've been married and long time and I wouldn't have it anyother way!!
Pictures of the kids are cute as always!!!
Don't get me wrong....I love my life. I just think alot of those outings were easier without kids.
I love seeing my kids experience things for the first time.
I wouldn't have my life any other way either. I just have moments when I miss the time I could cater myself, like when I was single.
Looks like a fun night. It's weird for me to see kids in jackets now. We barely get under 100 degrees at night now!
Oh, the good ol' Draper days. I feel the same as you; I wouldn't change my life now, but I still love to think back to the times we had when we were single. We had a blast together. Miss you too!
Looks and sounds like you guys had a great time.
I totally get you on the "being single again" part. Of course no one would trade their family for that, but sometimes I long for a day or two of that! You could do whatever, whenever you wanted. It was great.
You guys are always doing fun things! You are a great little momma!
Hi Kendi-
Here is the link to find out about the free movies (actually it looks like you have to pay $1) that I think Jen was telling you about for the kids. It's fun!
