A Camping we will go...

UMM, Fishing, Campfires, Smores, Swimming, Relaxing & visiting family.. What more could we ask for? The last week was great. I forget how much we love to camp and realized that we must go more. Saturday, Mark and the kids woke up early for the Perch tournament. Out of 13 boats Mark, Angela and MJ came in 5th place. That morning while Mark was getting ready to go he found $28.00 in his pocket pants that he hasn't worn in over 3 years. So we bought our raffle tickets because we knew that we would be lucky, and we were. Mark won - a coffee maker (that we gave away), an Eagle statue, A microwave and a really nice electric boat motor for trolling. It was like Christmas. He put that motor on the boat and went a fishin'. He has wanted one forever!
Was nice to have the family all together.
By the Campfire.. My children's many talents...

Here are a few pictures. Unfortunately not many, my battery was low.


Will add later.
