so much to say

i, judah, would like to go on the record to say:

i went camping!

hey everyone!  i had such a great time camping!  we left california and the first thing we visited was the hoover dam.  

it was really dry all around the lake but this was quite an amazing structure!  when we left the dam, we headed to zion national park in utah.  this is how i passed the time:

before we got to zion, we stopped at a little apple farm and my mama wanted me to walk in the grass a bit, since we wouldn't be seeing any more grass for a few days!


the mornings at zion national park were cold!

but soon and very soon it warmed up and we went hiking!



the next day we drove to bryce canyon national park. this is what i remember of the drive:

bryce canyon was spectacular (that's a new word i learned!)!
another word i learned was "hoodoo." that is what all those pillar-like rock formations are called. that evening we went on another hike.



here i am ready to get on the road and head to colorado!

somehow i don't really remember how we got to colorado:

well friends, i think that should give you a good overview of camping. i'll post about colorado later! i hope you enjoy seeing my camping pictures! it is good to be back online!

busy bee, social butterfly, yep, that's me!

first i had my photo shoot with papa tob:

then i helped nana at the first aid tent at vacation bible school (soccer camp '08)!

next, i practiced "mutton busting" for when the rodeo comes to town. for those of you city folk who don't know what this is, i suggest you goodsearch
it.

after that i made lots and lots of cookies with my mom for the bible school/soccer camp banquet!





AAAAANNND i had a bath!



whew!! i'm exhausted! goodnight!
