Just a few from Icehouse

We just got back from our annual camping trip to Icehouse Lake. We had such a fantastic time, as always. The girls are seriously made for camping. They both had so much fun, but Avery is the perfect age and was able to entertain herself and also be incredibly helpful. She is such a brave camper...she is normally such a girly girl. She loved the bugs, the dirt, swimming in the lake, the slimy fish, hot chocolate, and smores minus the graham cracker and marshmallow.
Riley loved the dirt and did pretty well, but she still needs to constantly be watched and that is a little hard. I think next year will be lovely. :) It is always so much fun to be in the outdoors, but it is always nice to come back home too.

So clean...the first day.

The boy...He almost died on this trip, seriously. I think he swallowed too much lake water and bark from the many logs he tried to eat. I cannot really explain what happened but it was so scary. Thankfully he is home with us.

Kelsey caught the first fish!

Avery was sporting this cute look and I had to snap a pic.

The girls ready to go out on the boat!

How cute is she?!

This is one of the many logs Roger tried to eat. He seems to find bigger ones every year!

Great Grandma worked her singing magic and put Riley to sleep.
