Well we survived a WHOLE WEEK (yeah, thats right... 7 days) of camping with Crazy man and a newborn. Brave huh? I thought so. But it went pretty good. I can say that now that it is passed. Kami was a total angel. She was a perfect baby up there and that I am grateful for. Chance loved and I mean LOVED playing in the dirt and eating as you will see from the pictures. But he was a little tough up there. Naptime was impossible because he knew what he was missing out on. Nights were rough too because Steve went out on the night hunts and it was a little chilly for us to be outside, so keeping him happy in the trailer was a killer. But he slept good and he had a great time... but I was ready to be home after a few days... camping was much easier before kids, but it is fun to see our kids learn to love the outdoors like we do. Chance found a few new best friends too! He loved playing with Hayley and Hunter from sun-up to sun-down and he realized that Dennis was a good guy to go to when we told him no... Example: Chance says: "mom, I wanna treat." I say: "how about you have lunch/dinner first and then you can have one." Chance says: "Dense (thats what he calls Dennis) treat?" and Dennis gets him a popsicle... or four right before lunch. haha. I had a good time visiting with Cortney and Dorothy too. It really was a nice trip. And I did enjoy when I was able to go with Steve and spot deer for him. He didn't get one, but he can tell you about the big beauty he missed... sorry honey!
Chance would say "cheese" and right after I would take the picture he would say "cute!" And I would laugh and he would say... "Funny!" He is a crack up!
Here is our cute little trailer!
The kids loved their warm pajamas from grandma sandi. And Chance LOVED playing with sticks.
Kami was sooo good and she grinned a lot! She even learned how to play pinochle with daddy...

Camping is a lot different with kids - that's for sure! But it's fun to see them enjoy the things that we enjoy.
We should get together and let the kids play! Plus I REALLY want to take some pics of Kami. Sorry I haven't got with you sooner!
Don't you love how you have to pack twice as many clothes since the boys live in the dirt! Laundry was a killer when we came home from camping. The trailer does make it easier though. Kami is getting so big. We need to get together. What nights are good for you guys?
