The kids are sooo excited, even Daisi can't stand the anticipation!
This was our campsite, it was absolutely beautiful!
Since it was raining/hailing when we got to camp, Al & Jeremy got right to work cutting us some firewood.
Unfortunately for LumberJack Kippen, he learned the hard way when it came to chopping wood. Turns out they WILL fly up and hit you in the eye!
Al got right down to business, he really is very handy to have around (and not to bad looking either!). Kameisha tried out the firewood duty for a bit.
Miss Daisi started the trip out just right... with a nap!
Once the winds and the rains of the force three hurricane moved out, our campsite was even more welcoming.
Sunset at the lake was beautiful. The kids and I loved every minute of it.
Jeremy was kind enough to pack Daisi up the 2 mile trail to the lake we wanted to fish at. She thought it was great!
Here it is, not another person around.
Beautiful!!!
Garrett couldn't NOT catch a fish! He is a fishing nut!!!
Al was the designated hook remover. Poor guy didn't get much of a chance to fish!
And another one...
Kameisha was just living the dream!
I do have to say that that is the nicest farmers tan I have seen in long time :0)!
Her patiences paid off!
Jeremy jumped to her rescue...
While Al & Daisi took a nap.
And here it is, my very first fish! Since I was on camera duty, I had to snap the shot from my hip while I was reeling it in!!!
I woke Al up to do the honors!
Here are the kids with our daily catch. Daisi was just begging to get down!
Daisi was all for heading back to camp, she has found an interest in chipmunks and squirrels!
I found the most beautiful lily lake on our way back to camp. It was my favorite!
Turns out that catching your food takes alot out of a person. The family was pooped by the time we made it back to camp.
But it wasn't too long until they were up and at 'em again!
And that made Al very tired again. He is getting so old!
Kameisha kept the fire going while the rest of us got dinner started.
She takes everything he says as gospel truth, poor thing!
Garrett wanted to show us his overwhelming strength when it came to splitting wood. Pretty scary if you ask me!
But it really isn't far cuz Al makes it look sooo easy!
I know that this looks like he is saying "you cut wood like such a girl" but really he was saying "you look like such a boy in that hat!"
Goodbye to camp...
Here we are, three days without a bath :0)!!!
