The morning afterThanksgiving (also Henri's bithday) we went camping at Inks Lake (just Northwest of Austin) with the Fieldings (cousins) and the McLanes (cousins) and the Humphries (friends.)
I loved the landscape! There were beautiful fall colors and there was REDROCK!!! It was so fun to feel like we could be in Southern Utah! Henri had fun scrambling and climbing around the rocks.
He also had fun doing a little fishing.
Here Henri is with Jackson McLane. They are third cousins once removed. They were little buddies all through the trip. On the second day Henri woke up and looked around the tent and said, "Where are we? JAAACCKSSONN! Wake up!!!"
They could have played in the hammock forever!
Buddies by the lake... they literally could have fallen in any second!
Cute brothers. I don't think there is quite the size difference needed to get an artistic picture, but I like it anyway!
Henri thought that this cavity in the rock looked like eyes.
Exploring caves
Here Henri is with Macy Fielding (another third cousin once removed) and Brooke Humphries. Macy is in our ward so they are already cute friends and he and Brooke became pretty good friends on our short hike too.
They found a pretty cool caterpillar here. Brooke and Macy are holding leaves that they were poking it with.
Here is the caterpillar

This might be one of my favorite videos of Henri
About 23 seconds later:
Why were we tired? Well, both nights Charles and I both ended up sleeping with a baby in our arms!
But how could you be frustrated with a cute face like this!?!
For breakfast one morning we made French Toast and Little Smokies on our Skookie pans.
On our way home we were misdirected (by me) and found this sign and wondered...
One last video of some fun in the hammock. (Warning: this video could make you seasick. I was pushing and videoing at the same time..)
