CaMpinG!

What a fun weekend. We went camping with the Davis's and Mandile's. We plan on doing two camp outs a year. One when school ends in the spring and one right before school starts at the end of summer.
It was way fun. We rode quads, ate good food, and got really dirty! At the end of summer it had been all rainy so there was hardly and dust, but this time we were covered!! The babies were so DIRTY!
Bode is our little trooper. I think he loved camping. He loved walking around in the woods. If you weren't watching then he would just take off. He would grab sticks, rocks and pine cones and jibber-jabber to them the whole time. He also was mesmerised by the fire. He wanted to throw stuff in it.
We also went fishing for a tiny bit. The lake is not kid friendly. It was to steep and if they tried to walk they would just tumble right in. Bode did a good face plant right into the dirt. (last pic)
All and all it was really great. Jer and I had a bit of car trouble on the way home though. We actually borrowed my parents motor home, so it was motor home trouble. On the way back up the dirt road something came loose on one of the fittings and we lost oil pressure so Jer pulled over right away and checked it out. Turns out all the oil was gone. If you don't know a lot about cars then you don't know the severity of this problem. Lets just say driving any further and we would have blown the engine. And a motor home is no good without a motor. So we flagged down some other campers
and got 5 quarts of oil. My handy man fixed it and we were on our way 2 hours later. Good thing Bode slept the whole time.
It was very nice to go home and take a shower. After camping shower is one of the best.


Face plant in the dirt. Gross dirt boogers!
