Camping and Weaverfest

This past weekend we took Alexis on her first ever camping trip. She likes to pretend to camp all of the time, so it was very exciting for her to go on a real campout! Of course, she ended up complaining about the bugs, the dirt, the lack of wet washcloths for wiping her hands, etc... but overall it was a success!

Here are Alexis, Dave, Johnny and Maggie at the camping planning meeting a few days ahead of time...

The ever cautious Alexis sitting as far as possible from the fire to toast her marshmallow...

Looking for frogs... the kids were all ready with nets!
Sadly, we never found one.


Alexis and Johnny chatting on the step to the camper... she was very fascinated by the Ditty's camper!

Maggie was a good girl and played with her toys in the grass... it gives me the shakes to think of how wild Dave would have been if he came with!

Johnny, Alexis and Kylie relaxing by the campfire...

We camped out Friday night, and then Saturday was the annual Weaverfest party. I didn't get very many pictures, but here are a few...

Cort and Dave enjoying the pool...

Alexis loved the hot tub!

Dave loves nothing more than a pocket door... he will open and close those a thousand times.

This is the ridiculous amount of stuff required for one night of camping, and one night of hoteling (and there was more stuff in the car).
