A night in Settlement Canyon

Kendra has been excited to have a night up at Settlement Canyon so earlier in the month we went up for a family night.  We invinted the Bakers to join us!  We each brought our own dinner.  I brought some homemade chili from home and we made scones in the dutch oven for a Navajo Taco treat.  Kendra was excited to make a foil dinner so that's what she did.  Unfortunately, Brach had to catch up on some homework so he didn't make it:(  She did bring adorable Rafe and we  all enjoyed holding him!  The Bakers grilled some hamburgers over the fire.  Some made s'mores for dessert.
 
After dinner we had a little family night on the Proclamation to the Family.  In our recent Stake conference President Collings asked us to sit down with our families and talk about it.  So we did.  I am amazed at how much that proclamation has been needed in the world since it was written.  Our society is decaying fast and it is sorely needed as a guide for today's families.
 
It was a great night in the canyon!  I was hoping to see some fall color but I think the weather still needed to cool off to turn the leaves.  It should be beautiful by now:)  We will definitely go back in the next couple of weeksw to get the full fall foliage:)

  1. Aren't times like this, FUN?? I'm glad you all got to be together and do stuff like this. Hal and Janis and Dennis and I used to go and do little things like that sometimes with our families, but we haven't for lots of years. Good to see Rafe's darling face! Love, Karen
