Mia got to go on her first camping trip with her dad
and Grandpa M. She was beyond excited and said that
she wants the "full camping experience" yes, she said those
words and that she even wants to tell "spooooky stories"
and put her hands up by her face!
Here she is doing a pose, they went to Cave Lake in Ely, Nevada
They got there Friday afternoon and didn't come home
until Sunday night. At first, I thought hmmm what am I
going to do all weekend. But I filled the days up quick
with sleeping, shopping, eating, and movies with girlfriends.
Dad and Mia setting up camp. Rick said she was super good
and really into it...
This is her outdoor pose!
And she can still be girlie even in camouflage
I was worried that they didn't have enough food, but
Rick said they didn't even get to eat it all.
They even took the train in Ely
She loved the train ride...
Mia and Rick on the train
How did she manage to get an icecream camping..
Good thing there's a little town nearby!
Here she is in the tent with her thumbs up ready to snooze.
Rick said she passed out both nights right when she laid down
because she didn't have a nap either day.
morning hair! She actually slept til 7:30 both mornings.
Rick did say it was pretty cold at night but she did okay
Look at her face in this one, not impressed with the fire,
which we know she's afraid of. She gets it from me. I couldn't even
light a birthday candle til I was in my 20s so I understand :)
Holding up her bear in the dark and talking to him about the day...
Only pic of Grandpa and Mia for some reason, but
it was pretty there.
She got to catch 5 fish and was very excited about it.
Very happy girl with her bug repellant clip on.
And here she is my little fisherman!
Rick explained that heavenly father sends fish down
for us to eat, so after that , she was okay with the blood :)
She had an amazing time, I will try and post a cute video.
She loved being with her dad and grandpa and experience tent camping.
I think they should make it a tradition :)
