Look at these cute girlies

Kallysta ~ Amelia ~ Devyn

Jacob with his new lizard friend & Sydney

Jacob carried this lizard around camp the whole time there.  He had a meltdown when we made him let the lizard go before we went home.

Ethan spent pretty much all his time sliding down this dirt hill on his bum

Ethan & Grady

And look at my chunky little man ~ I think he's cute

We enjoy eating when we are together and we had lots of yummy food

Nate is taking care of our tin foil dinners.

Mom even brought an oven ~ She made some yummy brownies

Mom had to finish cooking in the oven since Dad about burnt his finger off

The kids enjoyed cooking in the fire

Jacob LOVED fishing from camp

He caught MANY blue gills he had so much fun catching and releasing

Later on that day he found a few fish floating in the water and he knew we better not waste them.  So what did he do?  He went in the water and pulled them out, plopped them right above the fire to cook guts and all.

He was ready to eat them ~ but Dan told him it wasn't a good idea, who know how long they had been floating on the water and if they hadn't washed up there from someone else. 

Goodbye to the wonderful campsite. Shade ~ Grass ~ Water even our own bathrooms, we didn't have to share those toilet holes with anyone! 

Thanks Nate & Airaka for all your planning we had a great time!
