Bill & Sons Campout 2009

Bill had the opportunity to camp with (left to right) David, Faith, Carter, Solomon, Robert, and Gabby at the end of June, 2009. (Please note that the camera was accidentally set a month ahead!) The guys especially wanted to get together before David reported to his basic training for the Army on July 7th.
They camped on the Mogollon Rim, near Woods Canyon Lake, between Payson & Heber, AZ. Here, the guys closely watch over the children's safety as they all gaze over "the edge of the world!" (or the edge of the rim, whichever). A beautiful view!

Here is a happy Bill with Faith, Carter, Gabby, and Solomon.

Robert cooked some great food!
Here they are by the lake, about 2 miles from their campsite.
And Robert helped the little ones do a little fishing.
David and son Solomon!

David's daughter Faith!
Robert's daughter Gabby does a little rock-climbing!
Carter, Robert's oldest daughter, poses pretty! (His son, Nathan, is too young to get to camp yet. Maybe next year?)

Three pretty girls in a hammock, like 3 peas in a pod!

Actually, an injury ended up being the reason the campout was 2 days instead of 3. Here, Robert applies pressure to the major owie on Carter's head that happened as she fell out of the hammock.

All patched up, and after a Priesthood blessing for Carter, all smiles, the children say,"We had a wonderful time!"

Carter took this photo of her Dad, Grandpa Bill, and Uncle David. 'Looks like they had a wonderful time, too!
