Camping

We love the outdoors!  Every summer we are able to head down to the lake where Mimi and Pappy park their camper for weeks at a time.  This was our first time to go this summer and the kids were definitely missing it.
The kids load up their bikes to ride around the campsite circle and Mimi and Pappy always have great food on the grill or in the smoker.  Macy rode on the inner tube for the first time (with Rodney of course) and she loved it.  The kids fished a little bit with Pappy and we all just sat around enjoying each other's company.
Love this picture!
Mimi is always prepared with colors/coloring books, stickers and bubbles for the little one.
And this would be one of my most favorite parts -the SMORES!  The kids love to make them, but they don't care much for eating them.  So somehow mommy ends up eating a bunch:)
We are so thankful for Mimi and Pappy and their camper for all the fun memories we make every year!

What fun! Noah is begging Ben to take him, so we'll have to all try it out one night soon (maybe in the backyard first). Not really mommy's favorite thing in the world, but it's for the kids, right? :)

How much fun! We've been tossing the idea around, but haven't braved it yet. We may try it this fall, when temps cool down a bit. Looks like y'all had a blast!
And mine are the same way with the smores... And since I just hate to be wasteful, I eat them! :)
