Church Family Camp 2012

Last week we borrowed a trailer, packed up our dreck & headed north to Family Camp.

If you remember from last year, I was not happy with the campground.

It was HOT, DIRTY, DRY, CROWDED & DIRTY.

Did I mention dirty?

So we did some research & found & different campground waaay further north (not hot), not crowded, not dry & not dusty.

Aaaaaahhhh.

It was a really nice campground run by a really nice lady who, by the way, is going to have open heart surgery soon so if you feel so led, say a prayer for Mrs. Friday :)

There was a creek for the kids to play in, grass for the dogs to run, trails close by & a super nice reservoir to fish & swim.

And no, no icky, nasty, red, volcanic dust.

:)

We ate well, had good fellowship, a birthday party & of course s'mores.

So guess what?

I have pictures!!!

Surprise!

You're shocked right?

Right?

;)

Here we go...

 

Adorable fishermen & their tasty catch...

 Check out the 'big one'...

The 'campsite'.

Happy dogs (we brought them inside at night so they didn't get eaten by the bears...)

Pretty girl

Smiley boy.

Nothing makes a 3 year old happier than...mud!

In person, this little guy was a bright, bright red.

Pretty, pretty scenery.

Wild black berries.

The master chef.

From the lake to the grill in less than an hour...YUM!

Wild raspberries.

More pretty scenery.

Majestic Mt. Shasta.

Seriously? Who could resist this face?

And while we were at camp my favorite 5 year old turned 6! So we had cake & ice cream & presents & a party! Fun!

The cake.

The "guests".

"Happy birthday to yoouuuuu..."

A cool dragon/dinosaur book ~ evolution free~ but what's that at the bottom of the bag???

Clifford!!! (look at that face~ that is a happy boy!)

So a good time was had by all, nobody was eaten by a bear, and me & mine were not covered in nasty red dust. 

Blessings.
