7th Annual

Photobucket

We went on our 7th Annual Camping Trip with the Deterdings! How fun to have 5 little girls at your campsite ;)

Here are some pictures, in no particular order, from our weekend:

This is what happens when you fall down too much...by the last day, your mother has no "outfits" left, and you must wear this....

The "Big Girls" waiting for the campfire:

Mr. Steve and Daddy got to play some catch...and Chloe & Leah joined them.  These next three photos show you Chloe's skills:

1. Glove is out, ready to catch the baseball...

2.  Couldn't catch it....

3. But she can throw! Do you see that follow-through!?

Saturday morning it was wet from all the rain we had overnight, but that didn't stop the Big Girls from planning a hike with their Daddy's. Backpacks, snacks, a map, and binoculars were all taken along...and they did see some deer!

We were able to warm up enough to go swimming on Saturday afternoon.  Leah and Chloe were loving jumping in:

Heather and I used the Little Girls' nap time to have a chance to talk to each other ~ something that wasn't happening any other time ;)  In the midst of it all, sometimes it seems a little crazy to go camping with 5 children 5 and under, but memories are made & we're already looking forward to next year!  (Although, there was talk of bringing a babysitter ;) )

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...
