Camping...

We went camping with some friends in the ward. It was sooo Fun!
Our camp ground was so pretty with HUGE trees of all sorts.
Miss Millie and her buddy Mandy!

Roasting marshmallow's were the Highlight for the kids... we had cupcakes with chocolate melted inside the cupcake and then we topped the cupcake off with a hot roasted marshmallow.
It was Scrumptious!
Millie loved to collect dandelions... We were within walking distance to the beach!
Brother Jarvis found a shark tooth!Kade and Dallin flew kites
McKinnley's shoes got a little wet so we set them by the fire to dry and
The shoe, the shoe, the shoe was on Fire!
Millie was Dad's little helper as he cooked the food!
After our group campfire we headed into our tent and snuggled into bed. It began to softly rain.
It was Magical.
We imagined the Beach Fairies dancing on our tent all night long!
Maizie summed up our Camping trip Perfectly!
TWO THUMBS UP!

You guys are the best, cute cute cute kids! Mine have been begging to go camping. I finally told them, we don't camp. (Which is kind of a lie) Tom doesn't camp, and I'm not taking them alone. Glad everyone had fun. woot woot to shoe shopping!

What a fun weekend!! Uncle Jason and Max would of loved the kite flying. And I would of loved the fire and marshmellows. The perks of living in Florida. It looks like you have some great friends. Nothing better than being all together in a tent when it rains!

What a blast! Your kids look so happy! I love the misty morning at the beach after a rain. I bet it smelled good. Marshmellow, kits, fires, food and good friends, how heavenly! I love those Thompsons and can't wait to squeeze them.
