We had a great time--despite a few mishaps (you know the usual--grill wont work, kids throwing up, leaky diapers). We found out that we can break down camp from start to finish in about an hour and a half.
Here are a few pics of our weekend.
The first one is of Drew crawling in the front storage compartment (it happens to be under our bed) to get something our for Steve. Don't ask me why they didn't just go inside and open the cabinet doors from the inside!!
Next we have Drew after walking back from the pool.
He is such a nut sometimes!! He walked all the way back like this. Yes we got a few looks!!
Max also enjoyed the trip. He took up residence in this chair and pretty much stayed there the entire time.
He barked at other dogs every once in a while but for the most part was pretty quiet. He was happy to go inside and sleep at night. He did spend some time digging in the dirt. We got him stopped and then Casey and Landon started digging in the same spot. They burried his bone and then Landon dug it up and put it in his mouth!! I know I know--YUCK!!!!!
The girls wanted to sleep in the big bed so we told them that they had to share it with Landon and let Drew sleep in the smaller bed alone.
The two little ones started out side by side but that was quickly changed!!! Steve and I laughed because the 3 biggest bed hogs got to share 1 bed!!! They really did pretty well. We could see both the play ground and the putt putt course from our site. They both got lots of use!!! I think we used both every day. The kids had a great time playing putt putt.
Casey taught Landon all she knows about the game. Drew and Shelby also took the kids the playground on several occasions. We mainly used the swings.
Drew and Landon created their own little swing game.
Landon thought it was so funny!!
So what happens when Mommy forgets to pack the swim diapers (which are required for little people to use the pool?) Daddy to the rescue. What happens when Mommy only tells Daddy what size diapers to get?
Well, if you are Landon, you get to wear PINK Little Mermaid swim diapers for the weekend. Doesn't he look just thrilled with all of this? Oops!!
Every night we played cards. It was much better the 2nd night after we got a new mantle for our lantern--so much easier to see the cards.
I think Drew and Shelby had a great time. I know Steve and I did. We spent our last day swimming and walking on the pier. Landon loved seeing all of the boats.
He never wanted to turn and look at the camera but he finally did stop for a minute and sorta look my way!! We spent the rest of our time in one of the pool and the lazy river.
Casey thought it was great to be able to not have to share a float with anyone. Let me just tell you that she and Landon are so tiny that they just fly through the lazy river. If you aren't holding on to their floats it's more like a NASCAR race than a lazy river!!
Drew spent his afternoon playing ball with some friends that he made and really didn't have time for the lazy river with us. Sign of the times? Hope not to much!! After 3 hours in the pool this last picture sums up how we all felt......
