Camping

Family camping.....check!!  It's only taking my family 8 or so years to get me to go camping again!  When my sister called and said let's go camping, I said.. If you want to see a side of me you've never seen before...sure!  So we went and wouldn't ya know, it was fun. Except for the barking dogs in the middle of the night.  Or the leak in the air mattress. Or the kink in my neck from sleeping funny. 

Lake Casitias

This is a drinking lake so no body parts allowed! But, you could fish and throw rocks!

The water used to be so high. We were walking on shells for awhile till we got down to the water. Very sad-- we are desperate for water!

Dinner was excellent!  Hot dogs with chili and beans. A campers dinner right there!

Morgan Sydney and Samantha

The teenager "camping"

Had to work for our food and cook it!  Very tasty

Some sleeping happened and morning came real quick. 

Jarrod Melinda and Jeff starting breakfast. 

I took over the hash browns!

Bacon and spam. Yes, spam!  Another camping staple

After breakfast my other sister came up with her two girls to stay the night. We had to leave Saturday so it was good to see them. 

Rilynn

Westley and Gemma

Had some rivalry going on--- we love the Kings. Both my sisters and their families love the Ducks!  Whatever

Going fishing

Didn't catch anything but they still had fun!

Before we left we did some group shots

Our family--all survived and could hear our showers and beds calling!

We did have fun. And I said we could go back. :)
