Camping

I don't know when the last time was we went camping but I guess our families decided it had been too long because we got invited to go with Ryan's brother and his family and then 2 weeks later with mine. I think I remembered why we haven't gone much. It's fun to see your kids learn all this great stuff but keeping track of young kids while camping is not as much fun. Frog wasn't too bad but my poor nephew kept biting the dust. I also had a niece get a tick. hmmm, I don't know why we don't go very often.

Monkey was just like his mom. Always near the fire.



This is the work of my new little camera. It's like he is an angel.



Frog's new trick. She thinks its fun to bang her head on yours. As you can see with Ryan bracing himself, it's not actually fun.


The wildlife


Getting ready for a hike, I of course did not go on. Don't they look cool?


The boys all ready to go.


The hike.


Licorice. Need I say more?


I'm not sure what they were doing but they weren't crying!


This is how you get a 5 year old on an island without him soaking himself. I'm not saying he didn't soak himself. Our campsite was by a river and when you get this kid near any sort of dirt or water, there's no turning back.


Hours of fun! Something about throwing rocks in water is just oh so entertaining.
