Quading

So one of our last camping trips we went on was a quading trip, well they call it riders camp because you go and ride your quads there. Well it all started that Madison and Larry were just going to go with our neighbors and then our neighbors couldn't go so at the last minute I decided that me and Zach and Carson would go with. It was actually alot funner then I thought it was going to be. So thank you so much to Carlee and Jason for letting us tag along. This is usually something that Carlee and Jason do with their friends so it was nice that we got to go. I know that Carlee doesn't mind us going but you know we see each other all the time, we are in the same ward we are in the same family and well you get where I am going with this. So it was fun and it was a good chance for us to see if this is something that the kids would really like to do. I know that I would really like to get my own quad now. To tell you the truth I was jelous that Larry got to go on the rides and I wasn't able to go with, it is just so much fun. The kids had a blast as well. Carlee and Jason's friends were very kind and and let the kids ride on there littler quads, the kids loved it. So guess what the kids want now. So here are a few pictures of our quad trip.



Larry putting on a little seat thing for the kids so that when they ride with him they don't fall off. Carson had to get involved in this as well.


On the way up the mountain this is what we had to wait for. Yes a sheep crossing. This is the kind of road we had to go up to get to riders camp except it was mostly up hill.
more sheep
Larry getting ready for one of his rides. I love the way he looks on a quad.
Zach riding a little quad and he had to stop and ask me if he could go faster. He did this alot of times and I just had to tell him not to go to fast. He is my dare devil.
Carson wanted so bad to go for a ride. Don't worry everyone this one is not turned on and the key was not in, he was just sitting on one that no one was using at the time. He loves the quads too.
Zach lovin his ride.
Here he comes
There he goes
Can you tell that Carson is making the noise of a quad.
Off Zach goes again.
Here is Madison, she has really come out of her shell this year and tried some new things and she loved this.
She probably could have used a bigger quad but this was good for her to learn on this one.


Here are some pictures of our drive down the mountain. It was very different from the drive up the mountain. It was smoother going down and and when we went up it was really bumpy and had alot of turns and stuff, but on the way down I would have to say was a little bit scarier. This is what we had to drive down. Can you see that there really isn't anything to the side of us but a cliff and we are pulling the trailer.
This is the cliff and don't worry I zoomed in so we weren't that close.

Here is a picture of the truck pulling the trailer. When we got home we washed both the truck and the trailer because it was so dusty.

More of the road that we drove down.

This is what happens to Carson when we drive on a bumpy road.
Oh my gosh we made it to a real road, thank heavens. It was alot more smooth from here on out because we were at the bottom of the mountain I think.

I am so jealous that you got to go! I love the pics and maybe next summer we could rent a quad and go together in the new RV that Chris says we are buying!
