This Little Piggy

I love my family! Saturday night, my mom called to ask if we wanted to come over for a pig dinner. Now those of you who may not be familiar with pig dinners, this is not where you roast a pig in the ground, but where you eat out of troughs like little piggies. I was quite surprised to learn that Darla (my oldest sister) has never partaken of this wonderful activity. She and her sons are out visiting from Chicago. Our friends Jason and Erin came over with us and we enjoyed a delicious dinner out of our troughs. This is quite the experience and as you can see from the pictures, a very delicate process. One thing I have learned is that you have to just dig your face right in there, like Ammon for example.
Notice there are no pictures of me. Do you think I would actually humiliate myself when I am the one typing the blog. I don't think so.

Campout

Ammon was supposed to leave for Yosemite and was going to be gone all week long but his trip got canceled an hour before they were supposed to leave. Yeah he was pretty bumbed but it's probably for the best. We decided to go camping with Ryan and Melanie on Friday and it was a little hectic. The dinners took a little longer than expected but they were good. Then, at 2:30 Addie woke up screaming. Oh the joys of camping with kids. I think she had an upset stomach but she would not calm down.

We didn't want to be stoned by all the sleepy, angry campers, so Ammon and I brought her home at 2:30 in the morning. She was doing better in the morning so we drove back up to have breakfast and get all of our stuff. We were also able to just hang out and go for a walk around a lake, which was really nice. We want to go camping again but are a little afraid of the same thing happening.
