Crazy as it might sound, over the 4th of July we went camping with my parents and Amber. We had a lot of fun. We went to a place called Crazy Horse (I think it is in the Frank Church Wilderness). Wednesday night we drove from our house to my parents (7 hours), got some sleep and then headed out for our camp site on Thursday morning (about 2 more hours). It was worth the trip because it was absolutely beautiful up there. We were obviously the first people to camp in that spot all summer because we had to cut trees down to find the table, and rake away all the debree from the winter. My only specification on a campsite was that it had to have a bathroom (which it did, but it was very small, and very low to the ground. Try being 7 months pregnant and doing that!)
The kids had a blast. They loved riding the four wheelers (which they did a lot), playing games they made up, and fishing. Owen actually caught the first and only fish in the lake (thanks to Amber who hooked it for him). He really didn't care that much, but Claire sure thought it was cool. The last night of our stay it got cold, so the kids ended up with us in our sleeping bags (you have to remember that sleeping bags are not that big), so Chad got up about 5:00 to go fishing, and I moved onto the measly mat that the kids were sleeping on, so by the time we actually got back to my parents, we were very tired.
We had a great time, but I don't think I will be camping again this year. Those chairs are getting to hard to get out of. Thanks mom and dad for a fun time!!
