Campout

Our ward had a campout last weekend, which I wanted to go to but I thought we might be moved out by then (hah!), so I wasn't planning on going - plus I wasn't sure if I'd be up to it anyway. But the week of the camp out came and I was feeling great, and we were still in the ward...so we borrowed a tent and air mattress from Will's parents and went. A few people thought I was insane to go camping, but it wasn't that far from home and only for one night, so I wasn't too worried about it.


This is Will during the relay races - they had three teams of one adult and three kids, and they had to do a backpack race first and then set up a tent. Will's team won, of course.
The campout was a lot of fun. We all brought our own dinners, but they made cobbler for dessert and even had ice cream to go with it. Then for breakfast they made fry bread, which was surprising to me...seems like a lot of work to me, to get that much oil heated up and have the dough ready and everything, but it was good.

Not crazy at all. We used to go backpacking when I was expecting Tim... it was easier than once I had to carry him in my arms!!!

That's fun you guys got to go camping. Andy and I need to go sometime before the summer is over. I love the picture of the fire. Did you take that - if you did you have awesome skills :)

Yes it was awesome. I felt like a cheater with the air mattress, but oh well. I did take it...my camera has awesome skills :P
