Grumpy Kid Camping

Marti and I went camping Monday through Wednesday. We started out with plans to do Strawberry Lake but after the major rain storm on Sunday we moved it back to Unity. Monday morning we moved it even closer, East Camp Creek. I like trying different camp sites every time.

Kelli, McKenzie, Julie and Mollie came Tuesday and spent the afternoon with us. It was a great way to get the baby girls ready for their first "real" camping trip in August.

My kids were grumpy and grouchy and slept poorly (especially Tuesday night.) I was ready to get them home Wednesday morning. We were back in Vale by 11 and Ruth took a much needed 4 hour nap.

But Marti, Braxton and Brooke were lots of fun and great camping mates. Thanks!!! The question is, will they want to camp with us again??? It makes me a little nervous for our next camping trip to the coast. Mainly cause it'll be a week long. That could be miserable with grumpy kids. Thinking positive...they're going to be HAPPY campers!

We had a great time camping. You forgot to mention why your kids were grumpy. If the "Bair's" hadn't forgot our tent everyone wouldn't have had to shoved into one tent. 6 kids and 2 adults...too many! Thanks for the pictures!

The kids don't look grumpy to me! They look happy and ever so cute, just like their mom!
I think you'll have a great week camping at the end of the month!
You're doing great on your goal of having FUN this summer! Keep it up!

This is Halloween Nite!
