Hot springs and Canning

Kyle is the canner of the house. He is really good about doing it, and he also enjoys he.I don't mind it, I just feel like it takes up a lot of time that I don't always have. He makes great pickles and beans. He also does lots of fruit. He has a great system down. He also found that having the kids help makes it go a lot faster. Kylie seems to have the most patience for it. Her hand fits perfectly in the jar and she gets everything packed in there really good. It is cute to watch.
In between canning and all of the other fun summer activities, we got in another camping trip to some hot springs.

Carson found this great rock, that we later used as our table. This was our first time camping at a place other than a campground.
The pool was so warm and relaxing, we all had such a good time
in between swimming, we did some exploring
and ate lots of yummy food at our rock table
We had so much fun, up until our last night. Right as we were getting ready for bed......Lexi started throwing up! The flu and camping are not a good combination! As we were swimming, I was getting a little creeped out about germs......and sure enough I was right! I am pretty sure she caught something in that water. It lasted for several days too......just as she was getting over it, Carson got it, then Kylie, then me. It felt like we were sick forever.
As we were leaving we spotted two deer by the road. Pretty cool! Glad we ended on a good note.

I can't imagine camping mixed with the flu, not fun! But it did look nice and relaxing up there anyways! Maybe next year we'll have to crash a camping trip and go with!
