Memorial Day Weekend

To celebrate Memorial Day, we went on a Thornton family camping trip to Fillmore, Utah. It's a teeny-tiny town with a gorgeous camping area (by a river!) and lots of Thornton family history. How had we never been there before? Maybe because of the high gas prices ($3.14!) Here are pictures of everyone who went. Starting with the most dangerous.

Hiram's favorite part of the trip

Thomas, with his all-seeing camera


Bethany helped set up camp. Not so dangerous, but she sure was fun!


We loved having Azia and Whitney with us. We hope they weren't traumatized by our temporary lack of latrines. (We found some latrines later, down the road...)



We also loved being with Martha. She found this place and helped everyone a lot.

Cherie and Logan also came, with their five kids. We were glad Logan brought his guns- a nearby sign told us that it was "Bear Season." Fabulous. Here's the Mecham family:


Cherie, Logan, and Natalie


Trae eating a Red Vine


Julianna and Hunter making funny faces





Sadie, looking very much like a big girl





We had a really fun time! We were just there one night, since Liz had to work the next day. And we were all glad that we never saw a bear.


And here are some late additions (taken by Thomas and his afore-mentioned camera- Thanks Thomas!)
