    Our camping trip was lovely.  Well okay we had some disasters...what would my life be without them?? But we felt like in the end it was a success and we plan to do it again.  The above picture was taken from our campsite.  It was sooo beautiful.    We went to sleep with the waves crashing and woke up to them crashing (oh yeah and the sound of munchkins too )


    The disasters?  Well ummm ok we didn't bring a check-book and the camp wouldn't take cards...so I ran to the mom&pop store to get cash leaving Rob with the kids and well the serpentine belt on the van fell off.  *sigh*  Fortunately I babied the #$@*&( van to a pay phone and called my poor mom who really didn't need another stresser in her life. She rescued me, and let me use her van.  Ours will be in the shop probably until tomorrow (waiting for parts)  So, now we are vanless, and stuck at my house.  And the weather is GORGEOUS and just perfect for my first trip to Lake Lael, but it is not to be.      I guess God wants me home hehehe.


    The second disaster was the Hot chocolate.  My loving dh decided to make it VERY hot.  I usually serve it lukewarm to my kids.  But umm oh no he brought it to a boil.  And then served it to Samuel.  Samuel thought it was too hot and abandoned it...so Jamari grabbed it, and spilled it  all over Kaylin's leg.  She has a nasty burn now.    Bordering on second degree.  This is her second nasty burn in her short 2 year old life.  Mommy's getting good at doctoring them.    Its on her thigh between her legs, so she will NOT be wearing pants for awhile as they irritate it.


    Oh and btw if you ever have to deal with burns I HIGHLY recommend second skin.  It is a WONDERFUL product!!!!


    I am having Bible study at my house today that way I can go.  Otherwise I would have been stranded all day.  We scurried around and picked up messes.  House isn't spotless but everybody is moms and they'll understand.  LOL


          


    Here we have the kids eating marshmallows.  Ummm they put them on the sticks and they ate them.  Forget the cooking part. hehe.   And yes Zeria was a PIG.  5 at once is a bit much don't you think  


       


    This was Jamari's first camping trip and I think he quite enjoyed it.  Though was very ready to go home the next morning.  He crawled into my moms van and sat there waiting for us to leave...we hadn't even taken the tent down yet LOL


                      


    It was also Rainee's first camping trip too.    And she did very well, even slept the first half of the night in the car seat. 

                         


    And here we have miss Kaylin babying her "owie".  She was such a little dirt ball by the time we got home.  But thats what camping is all about right?


                      


    And one last scenery picture, because well it was beautiful.    This was the trail to the beach. 


    May you have a beautiful day
