Goin' Campin'!


We went camping this last weekend for a family reunion with my immediate family. I say camping because we went to a campsite, but you can see my house from the campsite! We stayed here so my sisters with little infants could stay at my house at night, but still participate in most of the festivities. Of course it was horrible weather again! We got totally rained out. There were points of sunshine though so we did have a good time.


We were packed in like sardines in our family tent. Pack 'n Plays are definitely not tent friendly! I have decided that it is not a lot of fun to go camping with toddlers. They don't walk so well so they are constantly falling in the dirt/mud. They get way dirtier than everyone else! Plus, they run into the firepit, run out of the campsite, and just cause trouble! Here they are confined to a double stroller so we can make some food!
And they are still grabbing at each other! Babies at least can just lay in their infant carriers!
The boys all went fishing, and I had Brian take Maya with them. Guess who was the only one that caught a fish!!! MAYA!!!
Point for the women! She was pretty proud of herself. She even got to cook it in the fire and eat it for lunch! Maybe she doesn't need us parents after all, she can apparently live off the land!
We got out of the campsite Saturday before the huge monsoon-like storm hit. It was a fun time. I think we will definitely do it again!
