Reservoir Lake

This past weekend we went camping in southern Montana. Ryan, Chase, the girls, Cooper, Holly and I went up first thing in the morning. It was our plan to get there and set up camp for mom, dad, Ed, Maggie, and Beauregard. When we arrived it was colder than I anticipated. The girls quickly put their jeans on. Within the hour it started raining. By mid-evening, it was hailing the size of dippin dots or BB's. Once the hail stopped, the second vehicle arrived! Good timing! We had a relaxing evening and chilly night of sleeping. The next day we did most of our activities. We went swimming in the lake (although Hannah was the only one brave enough to jump in), fishing, and took a hike around the lake, not to mention EAT! All the fish we caught went into the frying pan and were gobbled up promptly. Elayna actually ate a whole one herself. Hannah on the other hand is still afraid to try new things, but eventually ate a couple of bites. She actually said it was good, but she hates fish. Kind of an oxymoron if you ask me! Ah kids! We also enjoyed a late night thunder storm...I was able to catch one streak of lightning. Overall, it was a great weekend. We survived with minimal mosquito bites...although Hannah did get one on her eye lid that promptly made it swell almost shut!
