Gone Camping...

Last weekend we went on a camping trip to Foster Lake. We went with the Stanger's who we have know mostly through Kody and their son Matt. Kody and Matt play football together and have been in school together for a while. They also have a boy named Marcus and a girl, Peyton. Marcus is Kaleb's age so they hit it off pretty well also. Peyton is younger than any of our kids but they love playing with her. She is a little fireball and is always going.

The lake is really low so we didn't go in the lake at all. The kids did take a rubber raft in the pond in the middle of the campground. We fished a bunch but didn't catch much. Kody caught a little bluegill and then threw it back, at least that is what he claims.

The Stanger's, Craig and Tiffany, also have a motorhome so we had been trying to plan a trip with them for most of the summer but it just never seemed to work out so we finally got it in after school started. The littlier kids didn't have school on Friday so we went from Thursday to Sunday. As it does sometimes it rained for a good part of the camping trip but we still had a ball in the motorhomes.

Tiffany made some great Apple Cobbler which didn't last long and we mostly ate a bunch of good food and junk food. Probably wasn't the best training for my upcoming half marathon, but oh well. We are planning on doing more trips in the future, hopefully sooner than later.
