Camping Adventure

Daddy and E finally went camping together. Last year, he camped with the kids, but they weren't at a genuine campsite. E has always been jealous of Daddy camping with the the Scouts. I can't tell you how many times she has begged to go with him. Well, it was time. Daddy made plans to take E camping with a good friend and three out of four of his kids. Leading up to that weekend, E was so excited she could hardly contain herself.

She absolutely loved being with the girls.They get along splendidly.

We prepared meals to cook on the fire, s'mores, hot cocoa, and plenty of snacks..

Getting ready to cook breakfast.

The stage on which the kids performed several times.

Hiking the trails. I sure got a good laugh at E's pose. In another shot like this one, she is caught throwing her hair back. Too funny.

Waterfalls

Sheer rock cliffs enjoyed by all. Just kidding...Miles was scared. No, kidding...the rocks weren't that sheer.

First time canoeing for Miss E.

She said it was hard work, but loved it. She laughed hysterically while trying to tell me about Rich canoeing into the trees. She still laughs about that silly Rich.

She was big stuff hangin' with the girls in their own canoe. They brought it back to the dock at the end of the adventure.
They all had a fabulous time and E can't wait to do it again. She loved being with everybody and even cried the evening she got back because she missed her friends.
Great memories.
