Roughing It

Ok well maybe not roughing it seeing as though I ate more food than dinning at a Vegas buffet…….but compared to some who say they camp we roughed it ;-)  Camping is seriously one of my favorite vacationing activity!! We got a taste of it when we were in AZ since my mom and dad brought out a little children's camp play set, all you need for smores and yes a big camp fire in 100* heat, many of my favorite things that got me so excited for our church campout which was 2 weeks after we returned from AZ. Well lets not kid ourselves I was super excited when we got the go ahead to plan our church campout this year!! We are so blessed to have people in our lives like those in our church! They are so dear to us and we are so thankful to the Lord for them. I fully intended on having a completely relaxed time but there just were too many fun and exciting things to do and since there were some first timers we had to be sure to “initiate” them. No we didn’t jump them in or anything but there are some classic hiking areas that they have to experience as well as the best dessert I have ever experienced toastie eyed fries, what no….. toadies ties, I mean toast tight pies! hehe yea had to be there ;-) There were some first experiences for David and I as well our first hike was interrupted by a downpour of rain which was very unexpected or else I would have closed our tent window, than our 8 person tent broke and we had to move into a 4 person tent only we could only get 3 of us in there, but of course all this just adds to the experience and family memories! I could go on and on but there might not be enough room for pics so I’ll let them explain themselves ;-) enjoy!
