'Tis the season

For camping.  We went on our first camping trip of the summer a week and a half ago (hey, I told you I've been lacking the motivation to blog lately).  The weather wasn't the greatest, but the girls had fun anyway.  It was about 60 degrees and overcast but at least it didn't rain - it actually rained for the 5 days leading up to the camping trip and the 3 days after...but not during the camping trip.  So we had to compromise and be happy with the kind of chilly temps!!

The girls rode their bikes, played at the campground park, went swimming (in an outdoor pool when it was 60 degrees - they're crazy), made s'mores over the campfire, played with bubbles, drew pictures with chalk, etc.  Essentially, they did a lot of activities they can do at home...but for some reason, doing it when they're camping on "the bus" (aka: RV) is so much more fun!!

She knows she saw bubbles come out of this thing.  Now she's trying to figure out how!!

Watching grandpa get the fire started.

Last year they weren't remotely close to being able to walk on a balance beam.

 

Racing...one on a motorcycle...

 

And one on a dinosaur.  A little unfair, but oh well!!

And swimming by themselves!  Getting too big, too fast.
