Hoop Lake

I finally decided that it really wouldn't kill me to go camping. I'm not much of a camper, so going to Hoop Lake in the Uintas took a lot of convincing. Luckily we had a trailer (I don't think I'm quite ready for a tent.) Can it still be considered camping if you're in a trailer? Personally, I think that's the only way to go. Anyways, this was my first trip to the Uintas and it was beautiful. We had some great friends to enjoy the experience with and I'm really glad we went.
Camping sure isn't what it used to be. Mike whipped up an outdoor movie for the kids. It ran off his generator. He's so clever! I never would have thought this would be possible in the wilderness. He even had popcorn for the kids!
We were also able to benefit from Mike and DiAnna's fun Polaris Razr. It's a big 5-man off-road vehicle. It was a ton of fun! We were able to take it clear up the mountain and through rivers and puddles. The kids absolutely loved it!

Hannah caught her first fish and Allen grilled it up for her for dinner. She loved it!
Porter also caught his first fish. He wanted no part of eating the fish though. That's my boy!
Tate and his BFF, Kelton (my friend Lara's son). They are so cute together and had so much fun!

I love these guys!

Hoop Lake is so much fun. Eric and I take our girls up every year over the 24th of July. If you're ever up there during that weekend, come find us-there's a 99% chance we'll be there terrorizing the campground! It looks like you had a blast.
