We just got back from the Uintas today - so great!
I guess camping really brings out the humorous side in my family because we were really funny, if I do say so myself :) Definitely lots of funny moments!
Here are a few of my favorites...
(and if they aren't that funny to you, just know that in the moment, they were hilarious!)
As we were on our first hike, Weston caught up to me and said "Hey Ash, keep your eyes open for dinosaurs, k?" Reese and Lewis love to convince him that they've found real dinosaur tracks and eggs, and even though Westy is at first pretty skeptical, he eventually gets taken in...well, obviously he gets taken in if he is asking his sister to keep her eyes open! :)
Later on during that hike a mountain rainstorm set in. Luckily we made it to the lake and got under some "natural umbrellas", aka trees, but they were pretty spotty. As we were standing there with the rain pouring down and the thunder rumbling around us, my Mom said "Alright, we're going to have a lesson on wilderness survival!"
Reese's response: "Mom, we're less than a mile from the car."
At the top of our second hike we were sitting at Bourbon lake enjoying the silence (...until my brothers got there of course - then all the yelling and typical boy-crazy-loudness started!). All of a sudden Aaron points to the other side of the relatively small lake and goes "whoa!! there's some dude over there!"
"...um Aaron, that's Grandpa" :)
Lewis loved to pull the BlueTooth prank...
Lew: "What's for dinner tonight?
Mom: "Lasagna."
Lew: "What was that? ...oh sorry, I was on my BlueTooth."

And of course there were lots of
"Would you look at that!"s

and
"What's that in the weeds? It's a ____ - AWESOME!"

and
"Score, look at that Aspen! You can tell it's an Aspen because of the way it is." {http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hm3JodBR-vs}
...oh yes, my family is just hilarious :)
