The Camping Trip

So Mike and the kids (plus two boys from Zach's scout troop) went camping Friday night. They had a fun time and the kids really loved the camper. Zach had to sleep in the tent with the other boys (I guess it's a scout thing), so that didn't make him too terribly happy, but we're going to take the camper out this weekend, too, so he and I will both get our chance then. Of course, the camper only technically sleeps 4, but I was thinking that we could probably smoosh all of us in there while Cole and Jacob are still fairly small. Still, we'll take our tent just in case people protest the tight quarters. :)

Here are pictures with captions:

The camper all set up with it's pop top and the fancy bug screen to let the air in, but not the pests.

Jacob and Cole didn't want the egg breakfast that one of the scouts was cooking, so they opted for more hot dogs roasted over the fire.


The wholesome activity of playing poker and using gummi bears as poker chips. :) What you might not notice is the pretzel sticking out of Reid's mouth... they were "smoking" their pretzels while playing poker with gummi bears. :) Like I said, "Wholesome Activity".


And a good picture of the mess in the camper. I'll try to keep it a little more civilized when I go out with them this weekend. :)
