Camping!

I can't believe we waited this long to go camping. We had a blast!We got together with our friends the Wilsons and they kindly did all the planning despite their very busy schedule. We were nervous about camping with kids and needed someone to hold our hand through the process, but as we found out, it is also a lot more fun camping with friends.

Riley had a blast with Ginny
Emma cried every time she saw a bug. Riley was fascinated by the bugs and just enjoyed the nature.

Ben took Mike on a hike. Sometimes the trail was nice like this

and other spots it was like this
but this was the view from the top! amazing!

Mike was soo dirty when he got back. Here he has just taken off his shoes and that is NOT a tan line.While the boys are away the girls played and we found a nice spot on the stream to play with the girls.
We had so much fun we had to bring dad again later.
There were smores, there was a campfire, there were games, friends and fun! Thanks for a great weekend, Wilsons!
