Camping

Last week we finally got the chance to go camping with our awesome friends. Sam wasn't as hard to control as I thought he would be. He had so much to do, play with the 13 dogs that were at camp, open and close-open and close- and open and close the Thompson's trailer, eat and eat some more. Kelton rode the 4 wheeler and the motorcycle the Drury's brought just for him. Kelton was a totally different kid up in the mountains. He knew everything about everything,took care of building our fire, and helped with meals. The pictures I took the first 2 days, somehow got deleted. I wanted to look at them and the number count read 0. No idea what happened, I know they were there! There were a couple of our family together with a beautiful mountain backdrop, a picture of about 100 sheep in the middle of the road on the way to camp, and quite a few of Kelton and Sam playing with the dogs. So sad, so sad. Fun times though.


seriously


sam was running down this hill and biffed it. he layed there until i got all the way down to pick him up.

clothes got too wet

We got home on Sunday afternoon, unpacked, got cleaned up, and took a little nap. Then I did this....



I think if I didn't have such man toes, and wasn't wearing flip flops I probably would have been better off. It was like filet-ing (i know, not a word) a fish. Top of the toe down to the bottom of the toe nail. ER docs say I will grow a new nail since they were able to put that one back in...lol

That looks like so much fun. I take it Sam is a better camper than Carter?
Isn't that Shad with the flip flops on in one picture? And wasn't he less sympathetic with you for wearing flip flops? ??
Kelton is growing up too fast...a motorcycle? by himself?
Love the pic of Sam with the moto helmet on. Frame that one.

Camping looks like it was super fun and your poor toe looks super painful! Great pictures.

Looks like a fun trip. We missed seeing you at the reunion though. Where did you guys go? You got a lot of great pics. Sorry you lost some and about your toe. I hope it grows back nicely.

Um, OW!! I hope that it looks worse than it hurt because my stomach did a little flip for you. Glad you had fun, though. Someday maybe we will try real camping :)
