The Johnsons: Van Orman Family reunion!

Look at my excitement!

This past weekend, we had the opportunity to go up to Waterton Springs Camping ground for a family reunion! (Travis's Mom's side of the family.) Unfortunatly for us, we were told people were going to arrive thursday night...well that was not the case. We didn't find this out until we got there! So I got a whole extra night campin Lucky me! (I do not like camping, just in case you couldn't catch all of my excitement).
It was so super cold at night, super hot during the day (Which was nice!! Got a nice tan!) ate a stew with moose meat in it (which was yummy), saw a SNAKE beside our tent (I FREAKED out!) and then we had some fun exploring around cameron lake...

Catching some rays.

So as soon as Travis's family arrived, we scooted off into waterton because some wanted to hike and wander around or whatever. Well turns out only 2 people went on a hike and then the rest of us went and spent time at cameron lake while we waited for the hikers to be done. We had a lot of fun! However, we decided we had waited long enough for the hikers, so we started going up the trail to find them, when all of the sudden a crazy lady jump out of her car and started yelling at us "We just saw a BEAR from the road!! Its heading your direction!!" Awesome. I wanted to run back down and get in the van and cry, but Travis decided we better go and tell the rest of the gang...awesome. Fortunately I have a very loud husband who yelled the whole way and probably scared away the bear. Then once all the fun was over (and everyone was getting antsy to get the heck home!) We started driving home ,and when we passed waterton? A baby BEAR crossing the road!
At least I've got my once-a-year camping experience over and done with.
