The "GREAT" Outdoors

Well, this year the guys talked us into camping with them. The last week in July, we all camped at Dinkey Creek. For those who know me, know I don't particularly like camping. (Especially since three days earlier I was staying in a 5 star hotel at the beach!!!) I did survive, and we did have fun, and lots of memories!! :)Camping with the family there is ALWAYS yummy food! Luckily for us girls, the guys take care of most of the cooking! The best, was baked beans the simmered over the fire all day!! YUM!

All 7 boys had a blast! We had 2 campsites, and right in the middle was two dirt hills. Eric packed enough bikes and ride-on toys for an army, so they had a blast being daredevils! Grampa even packed a hammock, where the boys kicked back with Uncle Cliff and Peter.
Dawson and Ethan bathed in the old faithful brown bucket. This has been around since Eric was a kid, and has been used with all of the grandkids!
It was fun while it lasted....then home to mountains of laundry!!!
