Memorial Weekend Camping

As tradition...we went camping in the middle of nowhere for Memorial Weekend with my side of the family...here are some pictures :)


Abby and Titus are only two weeks apart...


Damaris & Joshua


Our friends Jason and Tara came up and spent the night in their tent!


Pete & Joshua playing on a log


Damaris


Titus...


Being...


Crazy...so I finally joined him since he wouldn't take a "nice" picture :) :)


My Aunt Pauline and my mom
Titus took half of the pictures I have on here by the way:)


Beth, Hannah, and Abby


My Grandma...
I never take it for granted that my grandparents can come up every year...especially since they are almost in their mid-90's!! And my grandpa was still cutting up trees with his chain saw and playing tug of war with the great-grandkids (carefully of course ;)).

Damaris loves her "uncle" Pete :)

Damaris fell asleep on our walk :)


Video of Titus on his "exercise" bike


Eve didn't know what to do with everyone there - since she is inside our house all the time normally :) I think she didn't know what to do with the heat, either! But I think she still loved it!


Me and Damaris


Several of us needed more water, so the guys went down the road a couple miles to an old school house with a pump so we could refill our tanks :)


Everyone was exhausted when we got back home...


Eve slept for the whole day when we got back :)

It was over 90 degrees all weekend, which made for a very unsocial weekend - everyone just stayed in the shade and laid around. It was very drastic weather since it hasn't really gotten over 80 all spring. But we still had a good time and look forward to next year :)

That sounds like a lot of fun, except for the heat. yuck!

Your grandma looks amazing and I can't believe your grandpa was using a chair saw. I hope those genes are passed to you :)
