Camping at its best. Our family went camping along with my Sister-In-Law, her Husband, and their two children. We really had a lot of fun. The boys just loved every aspect of it, including bugs, dirt, rocks, peeing in the woods, swimming in the lake, sunburns, eating like a horse, camp fire, smores, sleeping in a tent (or "kite" according to Monkey), picking off ticks, looking for deer, terrorizing Alice (our dog), and of course doing all of these things with their cousins right by their side...24/7, the entire time we were there. The adults really had a nice time together too. We stayed up and played cards, and some nights the guys went off fishing. My sweet husband was bound and determined to provide a top notch fish dinner one evening. It's a good thing that Kari (his sister) and I knew better, and packed an extra meal just in case the fishing wasn't good, and it wasn't. Those poor guys only caught one singe fish that was worth keeping. Our late night card games ended up being hysterically funny! Kari, I will never forget you "Sweetening the Pot." It did rain while we were there and both of our tents leaked, our clothes out on the line drenched, and children that just couldn't resist playing in the mud and rain. I have to admit hat it was a lot of work setting up and breaking it down. I'm not sure that I would be up for it more than once a year. Oh, and I learned that you can actually cook biscuits on a grill! Who would have thought? They turned out great too! Two more things, for the baby book, Monkey caught his very first fish. A very cute little brim. Also, Tinker likes to swim all of a sudden and we could hardly keep in the shallow water. We had to get some floaties just so he wouldn't drown!
