Memorial Weekend Camping

Memorial Weekend is our annual camping weekend with my mom's side of the family. I love it and I am glad that we have been able to make it almost every year!

This year it was a little cold at times, and it rained a tiny bit, but overall it was an awesome weekend!!

Here are some pictures :)

My crazy sister ;)


Wearing my glasses :)

Of course we need firewood to last us the whole weekend...and the kids love to help the guys :) :)

Damaris hard at work gathering wood :)


A lot of the kids pitching in and working together...


1, 2, 3....let go!


Going to get more...


My grandpa of course can't let the younger guys show him up - even though he is in his mid-nineties :) :)


Joy didn't care for all the chainsaw noise :) :)


More wood!


And more...


The kids love Pete :)


Eva was SO good all weekend and loved being outside and being around everyone.

Don't fall asleep unless you want your picture taken...

I guess if you are in your 90's you have a good excuse :) :)


No mercy when Dan fell asleep too :)


I absolutely LOVE this picture of my mom and Damaris...


Funny picture of my sister...like I said, it was a bit cold for the first part of the weekend...


Me and Kara


Sitting by the fire...


Jenn of course was there...she is an honorary family member :)


And what is a camping weekend here without playing softball...



Dan wearing Damaris's sunglasses


Jenn's turn...


Damaris to Jenn: "I love you. What's your name?"
Ha ha ha!!!

The kids spent a lot of time building all kinds of cool forts in the woods across the road. They did a really good job!!

Here is Titus's fort that they helped him build.


Inside the fort...


Complete with a campfire and everything :)

On Monday, it turned really sunny and hot. It was beautiful! But quite drastic compared to the first part of the weekend :)

Our youngest camper...Annie was almost 6 weeks old in this picture!

We all had a lot of fun, and can't wait to go again next year ;)
