Propane Torch + Sawdust + Five Men = . . .

Mark and I just got back from participating in our stake's youth trek in Wyoming. I am busy trying to get sand out of everything and finish the laundry. So for now it is just a quick update and more on the trek later.

Last week the entire Fitch family gathered together at Grandma and Grandpa's for a little campout. We roasted hotdogs and marshmallows, grilled hamburgers, and had a rousing game of croquet. I am happy to say that I was the winner of the first croquet game. 

We ended the night with some excitment. This is what you get when you combine a propane torch, sawdust, and five men.

A Day at the Farm

What trip to Colorado would be complete without a day at the farm? 
We worked up an appetite:

riding horses,


mule busting with grandma, 

 and operating heavy machinery.


Ready for a snack!

Picnic in the Park

The next day of our trip was spent at Chautauqua Park in Boulder. We packed an elaborate picnic and set up right next to the playground. Carter took a quick nap but soon joined Abe and Liv in the sand.




I can't get over the short, sock, and boot combination. 
If only he had on some Tevas he would be Papa Steve Jr.

A Trip to the Zoo

Mark and I went to Colorado for the 4th of July weekend. We arrived at 2:10 am on Thursday morning and 6 hours later we were ready for a trip to the zoo. We had such a fun time:

On the Carousel



On the Train





And were pretty tuckered when it was time to go.
