Lake Lyman in the Uintah Mountains

A highlight this summer was our camping trip to Lake Lyman! We spent a week doing nothing but 4-wheeling, canoeing and sleeping in our new addition to the family--a 24-foot pop-up trailer! Troy and I felt like we finally got back to our outdoor roots and never felt more like ourselves than when we were racing down the trails with sand in our hair and our little kids right behind. We are so impressed with how well they ride!














Don't let Madi's favorite color fool you-she is a tough girl who can maneuver!

Loidy wasn't so sure about the idea of off roading it-until she heard there was a bathroom a 1/2 mile away. Suddenly, she was a pro! She'll tell you differently, but we know she secretly loved it--look at the smile on her face!

Those pictures are EXACTLY what I thought your family would be like from the moment I ever knew you and Troy together, they are the perfect Blanchard family moment captured on picture! Except I always thought Troy would have his long hair and you two would both have "bobs" like your kids. :-)
