So on a Friday night, we all drove down there to camp out with the ward for the weekend and it was so much fun. Each family was in charge of cooking their own dinner so we cooked hot dogs over the fire with baked beans, carrots, chips and peaches. Dinner of champions. Then the ward provided s'more's--the kids always love cooking those--and the Bishopric provided breakfast in the morning which were yummy chocolate chip and blueberry pancakes, bacon and watermelon.
Here are some of our friends around the campfire... Makenna, William, Brother Cutler (he's the other counselor with Cam in the Bishopric and he upkeep's the campground and does a great job), Natalie, Cam and Karen (another one of Hallie's good friends).
CAUTION: S'mores can get messy if eaten too fast. Noted. Where's the wipes?
The kids all got along so well and just loved exploring in the woods and catching fireflies at night. That was the nice thing about having a private campground, the kids could go off and explore and we didn't have to worry about them getting hit by cars or wandering into strangers campsites. Bentley was just happy watching the kids have fun. He did great sleeping through all the noise and in a strange place and slept all night. And yes, being the paranoid mother about babies while sleeping that I am, as soon as I snapped the picture, I took his binky strap off...no need to worry.
Hallie and Makenna have become quite good friends lately even though they're a couple years apart. Makenna's Mom, Tina and I are good friends, so I love that our kids get along now too.
Hallie and Makenna had a little too much fun swallowing water out of the pump then squirting it out like a fountain as we packed up our tents.
Daddy took the girls on a hike before we left. Sydnee just loves her Daddy. I just love him too.
Maddie became Bentley's bud while we were camping. Look at the love he's giving her.
I managed to escape every picture that I took, but just know that I was there behind the camera having a good ol' time too.
