Memorial Day weekend 2013

May 24-26, 2013
And the camping season begins! :) Pulled into Coffins Grove to kick off summer May 24th... and as you can see, we're all wearing jeans and jackets :(

Our camper and Dana & Jason Sullivan's camper

Friday night the kids ran hard! Everyone was so excited that the weekend was finally here :)

Lots of baseball going on :)

Laynee & little brother Levi

Lydia and her helmet - ha!


She insisted of course

Smores later that night before it rained...


And then it poured ... all night... and all day :(  Here we are in the camper... notice the sweatshirt & jeans?!? Doesn't she look adorable??

It was freezing in the camper... had to go home and get the Eden Pure heater... redic!

Trying to take a picture of the rain

Oh you know... sweats, jackets... it's only the end of May :(

these girls didn't care! :D Stole from Maggie's blog - thanks Maggie!

Went home, took naps, woke up and decided. FINE. We're winter camping. Went upstairs, grabbed hats & coats, put a smile on my face and had a nice night :) Dana & Kris - we look happy right?!?

And how could I not be happy... look what Craig made me?!? :D

My very own fire poker! With a label that I thought was SO cute... adorable. I was so touched :)

LeaAnn was queen of our camper... and of the campground if you asked her ;)

Here was our mascot - Sasquatch! :D Dustin & Sara found him

All she needed to make her happy :)

Craig brought in sawdust to cover up the mud... brilliant!


Then it started to rain again... and LeaAnn decided the rain was not going to stop her!

Under the tree, in the rain. She carried the chair, her baby & blanket :)

Stopped raining.. and Jason & Dana tried to start a baseball game.


Like the layers?? ;)




And then it rained again :( notice LeaAnn and her chair???

trying to get Wiam to watch  movies on mom & dad's bed :)


But she just wanted to be outside :)


With her chair ;)


We managed to cook a feast! Chris smoked a loin, Hogans had pork wings, Kris made bacon-wrapped-asparagus... waaayyy to much :) and oh so good.


lots of coloring... thanks again Maggie :)


They managed to eat outside in chairs, b/c all the picnic tables were soaking wet.


Super cute Kyle!

That night, Kyle & Lydia watching Rescue-bots (I had to do a double take on this picture.. I thought it was LeaAnn!) But Ms. Wiam put herself to bed at 7pm this night! And she stayed there b/c she loved, "my bed!  my camper!" so much ;)

The big girls watching Wreckit-Ralph in the Peck's camper

Overall we had a great time... I just wouldn't choose to do it again ;)  Crossing our fingers for nicer weather next time!
