Camping - Elkwater - May Long '09

Our camping season has finally started!!

We were a bit worried that the weather wasn't going to cooperate with us, since it snowed the week before we were to leave! It was a great weekend and we all had a fun time. The only problem we encountered was that the boys do not like the vaulted toilets. Can you blame them?

Here is our campsite.

The kids had a great time riding bikes to and from the playground, playing badminton and volleyball and playing trucks in the dirt.

Last year when we went out to Elkwater, we took a little hike. The boys remembered that and wanted to go again.

The boys had to get some walking sticks and then they were all set!

This is my attempt at a family shot on the trail.....
.........we may have lost Logan!

(I had a picture of Carter here. Not sure where it went!)

I then tried to get a couple shots of just the boys. They really didn't want to get their picture taken.

Mark wasn't to excited to get his picture taken either.

Logan and Elizabeth hanging out at camp.

I think they were just eating a bag of chips between the two of them!

Carter and Teagan hung out in the Thorpe's trailer doing princess puzzles. HUH?

I was also given my birthday present (really early) from Lori. It was great timing! She gave me a camping chair with a heater in it! It runs on a battery, that you charge, and it keeps your butt and back toasty warm. Thanks Lori!!

We are looking forward to the next trip!
