We headed to Elk Ridge for our annual fall campout. We went with Brad's parents and brother Tim and family. The weather was amazing and the leaves were changing into beautiful colors, mostly yellow. We relaxed, caught frogs at the frog pond, read books, took naps, went on motorcycle rides, saw some deer, heard some elk bugle, enjoyed a campfire each night, ate delicious food and were once again reminded that life is REALLY good for us and we are so blessed to live where we do!!
I snapped these on our drive over. The kids were in heaven with the crisp fresh mountain air.

Tough guys ready for a paintball war! Dads against boys
They returned just even tougher and with lots of colorful splotches everywhere. The husbands decided to shoot each other in the backs of the thighs and both of them had huge bruises for a week after! Boys will be boys...
Brad got up early in the mornings and went out looking for elk. He took some amazing photos of the gorgeous leaves. I opted to stay in bed and sleep, but I wasn't exactly invited anyway... there's just something about a man and his forest and looking for large beasts that I don't mess with! I'm glad he could have some time to do what he loves.
ready for the frog pond with homemade frog catchers and all!!
