camping

We went camping for Memorial weekend with some really awesome friends. It's nice to camp with friends who are like expert campers because we aren't! They were prepared with all the things we didn't have or just forgot.

There were 12 adults and 24 kids at our group camp site.  It was a beautiful camp ground and I love being in the mountains, it was just so much fun.  The kids got along great (mostly) and had a lot of fun getting dirty and exploring the area.  Only a few times did kids get lost wonder too far but we came home with everyone. 

We were all happy and dirty and tired, so that means it was a huge success!  Thanks Amie for putting it all together.  You are amazing.
