Happy Campers...

This weekend we went camping with Dan's brother & his family...
We had such a great time...



Our sites were right along the "Muddy Creek" ~ It had been raining the day we arrived so the creek was high & very muddy & Matthew said - "Wow - The Creek is made of Chocolate Milk!" The campground was really nice & clean & they even had a swimming pool (which my kids LOVED!). Saturday we went to some of the local area attractions and shops and bought some sweet corn which we roasted over the fire ~ YUM!
You never know what it's going to be like when you go away for a weekend with people (even if they're family) but this weekend went very well...Everyone pitched in ~ We took turns cooking, holding the baby & even taking trips to the bathroom with the kids (Thanks Bobby!).
Uncle Jack & Aunt Mary got to have a lot of one-on-one time with our kids, which they rarely ever get to do! Even Baby Jake did well on his first camping trip!
