Family Camp

Way back over labor day weekend I packed up the kids and the dog and went camping for the weekend. My moms family has had a camp out every year for almost as long as I can remember. Its been 5 years since the last time I went, so I was due! There were only about 35 of us there....we have out grown any "real" campground. My Aunt has a connection with some folks who have property along the river, they keep up a nice private "camp" fully equipt with porta pottys, large tents, bbqs, fire pits, water.....Awesome place!!!
Lucy with the only other girl cousin! So adorable!


I am rocking the campground. I am not sure how much they loved having me around! I apparently laugh really loud and a lot.....and I think my red hair throws them off!!!


My girl! She is such a character!!! And she was really into playing Apples to Apples!!!


Caymus pretty much played on this bike all weekend! Next year I will bring his! He built jumps and caught air for 3 days solid!


This is our "family camp" picture. This year the Aunts had a great idea to take family pictures in front of our "homes". Very funny and a great memory to look back on!

Mom and Dads "house". Very sweet arnt they? The funny part is, they were the first in the family way back when to have a moter home......They have come full circle with the whole tent thing!!!


Moose got off his bike long enough to play in the river a little. Doesn't that look fun? I bet it was but that water was about 45 degrees!!!



Lucy got a ride with Uncle Ray on the antique 3 wheeler. She had a blast and begged anyone who would listen to take her for a ride!


Learned how to play dutch blitz, fun game. We played because we are dutch.....funny though the point of the game is to get rid of cards not hoard them...that doesn't sound very dutch to me!

Had a great time and bonded with some family I havent seen in ages. I will be back from now on if they like it or not!!!
