Campin' Time

We did a spur of the moment camping trip this week. We left Monday and stayed until Wednesday. Shule had to work so I talked Dad and Mom into coming with us also. We had a fun time. Dad of course had to work during the day too so it was mom and I with the kids during the day. We took walks in the woods, picked blackberries, went and swam in the river. We spent the evenings playing bocce ball, star gazing and making smores!! Swimming in the river...the area we were at the water was shallow enough that the kids were able to walk to the other side of the river with no problem!!! Spencer had fun swimming across the rocks and trying to catch the little fish that were swimming around!


Yummy smores!!

Checking out the tent the first night there, and Spencer and I enjoying a little nap while we were waiting for Kari and her girls to come and hang out for awhile!! Spencer fell asleep during dinner on the first night, I moved him to the chair and he slept for a good hour! The last night there the zipper on the tent broke and I remembered we had clothes pins. Instead of packing up and going home we made due with clothes pinning it shut. the con, the tent had a water in it when we woke up Wed morning. A nice rainstorm decided to greet us Tuesday evening so we all piled in the tent and watched Paul Blart Mall Cop...cute film btw. The tent and one of our airbeds stayed behind in the garbage cans, one less thing to carry home!!

I already miss camping. I want to go again!!!
