Campin trip #1

We went to Porcupine dam to camp (actually it was not at the dam, but just before it). We really roughed it too! No bathrooms, no picnic tables and no fire pit. That's really roughing it to me. We had a fun time and it was nice to get away and just do nothing for a weekend!!

I bought the bigggg marshmallows to see how they would be for camping. The bag had half strawberry and half white and I only came home with white-- the kids definitely liked the strawberry.

here's Kyra enjoying her mellow

Jakie liked his marshmallows uncooked and he did not want his picture taken. Can you tell?

Yum, yum that was good!

The kids were dying to get in the water and play. Bobby was the only brave parent to join them. Thanks Bobby!

This is Saaya. She is a Japanese foreign exchange student and she went camping with us. She likes the kids and was sitting on the fence with Jakie and I thought it was a perfect photo moment. I think Saaya was surprised how many photos I take-- I even outdid her!!

Whenever we are with the Barlow's, we play games. Here the kids are playing slap jack and Saaya is really good!!

These are the Cheeto girls! Ha- ha!!

I couldn't believe Saaya actually wanted to pose like the rest of these silly kids!! Her family will think Americans are nuts!!
