Memorial Day Campout



We went camping this last weekend! It was a weekend with real highs and lows. We tried really hard all weekend but didn't catch any fish. Paige was especially disappointed.



We did have a blast just being away from it all and visiting with family for 4 days. The kids were allowed to play with some hatchets Papa had (don't worry, they were dull) and so they hacked away at logs all weekend and thought that was great.




We took Joey and he had a blast romping around in the woods.








Papa rented a party boat and we had fun on the lake driving around and fishing. The kids had fun taking turns driving the boat.















The bad part of the weekend was when Grant fell and got hurt. He started to run and tripped and hit his face on a cement pad. The poor guy's eyed swelled right up. He now has a black eye and a huge scratch/cut on his face. We were all happy that it wasn't any worse. It's two days later and his eye is still swollen and he now has a huge scab. Poor guy!

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun (except for Grant's accident of course.) It's so great to be outdoors!
