Stout Camp 2014

In May we went for an over-nighter up at Camp Zarahemla in Morgan to celebrate the 100 year birthday of Levi's grandpa, Woody Stout. It was beautiful up there. I was ready to pack our things and move up permanently! On Friday night we made a big campfire to sit around. Walter refused to sleep, so we got to sit up with the adults for a while. After that we went into our cabin and slept pretty well!

This huge family tree was made so everyone could see all the descendants of Weeze and Woody.

 Cute cousins

 The favorite toy was a flyswatter.

 All of the cousins had fun playing hide and seek with the flyswatters.

 Jolene spent hours and hours making a memorial video of her dad's life. He was quite the inspiring man. 

I was very grateful for the older cousins! They are always so good about stepping in and helping/playing with the younger kids. Here's a picture of Sadie holding Walter during the movie.

 And one of Jaxon helping Walter in the bounce house. 

On Saturday morning we were in charge of breakfast.

 It was rainy on Saturday, so we were grateful for the lodge! The kids spent a large part of the day doing arts and crafts. 

Here is the rock painting station.

 And the coloring station

 Levi manned the station where they could glue pipe cleaners on their rocks to turn them into bugs. 

Here are the bugs we made

 3 pinatas were brought up! Each age group got a turn whacking a different pinata. But each time they broke and the older kids had most of the candy picked up before Walter could even get out of his seat. He was devastated. Luckily, Aunt Lizzie saw and gave him a handful out of the candy bag. 

In the afternoon, there was a talent show. One thing I love about this family is that no one is bashful about his or her talents. They love to share. Almost every family member participated. It was really fun.

Here's a link if you want to watch the songs Levi, Woody, and Logan performed. 

 Later that day (Saturday) the sun came up and the missionaries brought out a jumbo water slide! I was still too cold to ride on it, but Walter and Levi loved it.

"We're the kids of Weeze and Woody" and "The Stout Camp" song were a lot of fun to learn! Walter still sings them!

It was a fun weekend filled with great food, family, and playing!
