Cam's Solo Summer Trip

Cam got to go to Idaho alone for almost an entire week with Granny & Grandpa. He was gone from June 20-26. Because Abbie (Ryan's daughter) is close to Cam's age, this week was sort of like a vacation for her too. Granny & Grandpa spoil them both and let them do a lot of fun things. (In a few weeks when Gavin & Owen go, Avery will get in on all the action.) Cam got to watch Abbie play in a few softball games, they ate at Burger King, got ice cream sundaes with Aunt No'el, played in Ryan & No'el's pool, and then they took their annual trip to West Yellowstone and Island Park. First stop was Big Judd's. They bought one giant hamburger, divided it in four, shared french fries, soda, and ice cream cones!

Then headed on to Island Park to stay at the Martin Family Cabin. On their way, they drove through Mesa Falls. When they got to the cabin, they made "Rock Families", sat on the dock, and enjoyed each other's company.





The next morning they drove through Big Springs and toured Johnny Sack's cabin on their way to West Yellowstone. They also stopped at Quake Lake, toured the museum and watched the movie that told about the earthquake.



When they finally made it to West Yellowstone, they were privileged to see High School Musical at the Playmill Theater. Cam loved the Fudge and got his picture taken with Sharpay! He has watched Disney's HSM about a million times since getting home. My mom got her picture taken with John Peter Lewis...who was on American Idol a few years ago.




Cam really had a great time with his grandparents but we sure missed him at home. We have started relying on him for help with the other kids and it was a little hard without him. Aunt Callie & Mike met my parents in Tremonton to pick Cam up on Sunday afternoon. Callie sent me a text letting me know when they had exited the interstate. Immediately Gavin & Owen went to wait for Cam on the front steps. Even though they wrestle, tease, bicker, and fight on occasion, those 3 boys really are the best of friends! It was fun to see them be reunited. Thanks to my parents for making Cam's summer exciting! Gavin & Owen are anxiously waiting for their turn!
