Hiking

One of Ben's favorite places is the outdoor store, Out-N-Back. He went there and found that they were trying to hire someone to build them a counter. Ben got the sale for super cheap (at least a few hundred cheaper than the other bidders). Instead of getting paid, they offered $800 worth of in-store credit. Unfortunately, Ben didn't get hardly any of that money.... He only got $50 which was/is kinda frustrating since he made the sale and did 95% of all the work (cutting the wood, gluing it, designing the counter, and installing it. His boss only added the finishing). Oh well! We're grateful for anything! 

We used the money to buy a few things... Ben got a new tent and a few other knick knacks for his upcoming hike. I got a little backpack for small hikes and things and also a baby carrier for longer hikes for Peyton. We definitely wanted to try out our new gear as soon as possible! We went on a hike up a canyon in Mapleton. It was fun and nice to get away with Ben and Peyton.  We put Peyton in her little hiking shirt... I just want to put it on record that this is the ONLY occasion I would ever let a child of mine wear camoflauge. :) haha

Peyton loved playing in the water and seeing all the bugs and things! Plus, she loves the carrier and so do we!
