First Camping Trip
The annual Labor Day camping trip rolled around with much anticiapation this year. Dustin and I have been looking forward to it since last year. We knew it would be our first camping trip as a married couple and since we both love camping, we knew it would be a blast. We were like two children waiting for Christmas.
It wasn't exactly as warm as I hoped it would be but it has been a running joke for a while now that the only temperature that I am happy at it 79.5, anything above is too hot and anything below is far too cold.....what can I say I am becoming a weany these days :) I wasn't the only one that thought it was a little chilly though . We all bundled up for our night time trip to the beach. The intent was to catch some crab, but all we caught was a few colds and some wet feet.
Back in camp we had fun sitting around shooting the breeze. The kids went wild riding their bikes all over the place. Kloee and Desiree were kind enough to entertain me and share their bikes. Although Kloee required a little more convincing and the sharing was only short lived.
The highlight of the trip though was our trip to the beach to fly kites. Dustin, Kelly, Kloee and I ventured to the beach to fly the kites while most everyone else was riding their four wheelers. Kloee and I distcovered just how much fun it is to get all sandy. We were having so much fun, Dustin decided to join in and Kloee momentarily forgot about her fear of Uncle Dustin.Next year we are spending more time at the beach and less time sitting around the camp fire. I agree that camping is for relaxing but its also about having fun, and fun for me is at the beach. Where else can you act like a kid and get away with it?

she is still scared of him? I cannot believe how big she is,,,isn't she only 2 1/2? Such a big girl. Do they know what they are having yet?
Yes, for some reason she is still scared of him.....perhaps because we don't see them that much.....her fears are on again off again....depending on her mood. She is 2 1/2 and challenging her parents all the time....but SO adorable at the same time. Kelly doesn't know what she is having yet....its still to early. I am anxious to find out as well. But we do know that she is due in March.
