Canyon Picnic & Fun--Part 1

 Tuesday, July 9th, we went up the canyon for a picnic.  Benjamin is the "king" of the rock!
 Glen Williams entertained us with his violin.  He played numerous songs on request (from the hymn book) & a few others from other resources.
 Carter & Zane climbing the hill across from the Sawmill Campground (where we ate).
 Everyone enjoying Glen's music.
 The hill the boys climbed.  I don't really like anyone climbing the hill anymore because of the frequency of finding rattlesnakes there (personal experience myself!), but I let my older boys go.
 They got up there pretty quick!
 Trying to climb a "cliff" part.  
 They made it.
 David & Caden joined them.
 The younger kids played on the playground equipment.  Ben is in the green shirt.  
 Emmalee sliding down the slide.
 Ben & Callum
 Roasting our hot dogs over the fire.  And as luck would have it, all 5 of my kids are together!
 Our big group up the canyon.
 Emmalee & Ben.
 Alyssa, Brienna, Sashaann, Kailey, & David.
 Emmalee eating her "s'mores"--marshmallow on a chocolate covered graham cracker cookie.
 Pamela's messy s'mores.
 Roasting of the marshmallows.
 Callum enjoying his marshmallow.
We had 26 up there for dinner.  Let's see if I can name everyone:  My Mom & Dad, Pamela, Orley & Tanny Pitt, Glen & Carol Williams, myself & 5 kids (Brienna, Zane, Callum, Emmalee, Benjamin), Sherrie, Caden & Sashaann, Laurie, Alyssa, Kailey, Janna Lee, David, Carter, Ashlee, Roni, her boyfriend--Rob, & his son Cache.  And no one went hungry!
