This year our whole family made it to the ward camp out. (Last year Colby and I were in Utah) I was actually surprised how much fun it was. It seems like it has been so long since we've been camping as a family I wasn't sure how I would feel about it, but it was great. Scout Island is a beautiful little camp ground, and it was fun to be there with so many great people!-
One of my favorites was the camping classic s'mores! They had such a huge fire pit, so of course their had to be a huge fire!- Just more coals to roast on I guess.
The next morning the high priest made us all a pancake breakfast. They really did a nice job too! There were pancakes, sausage and fruit. Of course everything tastes better cooked out doors, especially by someone other than yourself!!!! After a few bites of pancake Colby took straight away to the watermelon, of course. (He is my child after all!) For about the next 20 min. he was just wandering around with watermelon in his mouth, happy as can be.- Yep he's mine!! Then about 5 minutes after they were done eating, the kids headed for the water. - at 8:30 in the morning? Oh well, were camping!
Later after cleaning up camp we headed over to the beach next to Scout Island. The kids had such a blast here. Todd Pace (the smart one) brought a shovel and started the kids on some great sand pits. We pretty well spent all day just hanging out letting the kids play!
Here is the typical Mom scene and then there is the Dads... who knows what was going on out there!
Liz had lots of leftover chocolate bars so she was kind enough to share them with everyone... especially the kids, who needed it like a whole in the head. Brian was thrilled when she gave one to Colby, especially since he was sitting on Brian's lap. Nice warm chocolate... doesn't it look yummy? (yuck)
