Us Fun Folk

The simple adventures of our highly entertaining little family

Friday, March 25, 2011

Our move to Houston put us just under an hour away from our wonderful Call's. We were friends at BYU and now we're together again! Our families are actually distant cousins (on Mike's side), but close friends. They have 4 wonderful kids, 3 of them close in age to our own! We couldn't ask for better people to be our relatives!

Last weekend we went camping with them! Well, sort of. It was in their backyard. The weather was PERFECT and there wasn't a single mosquito! It was awesome!
First we all loaded up and went to a park to take the kids fishing. Lydia even caught a fish!
We stayed at the park and had our tinfoil dinners and dutch oven peach cobbler! Yum!! Here's Ashley (5), Lydia, and Tyler (7).

Here's Isaac and Brandon being crazy 3 yr old boys.
Then we headed back to the Call/Johnson camping ground and went to sleep. We got two kids, a port-a-crib, and two adults in that tent! I realize now why I don't ever sleep in the same room with my kids because I hear every noise they make. Yeah, not a great sleep. Oh well. And what's ironic is their baby, Mia, was up crying for a time and I didn't hear a thing!

One of the best parts of camping is breakfast! Chad working on the fire. Mike and the kids supervised.

Mmm! Pancakes! Sydney showing off her mad pioneer cooking skills.
Evelyn was not a happy camper. Literally. It was hard waiting for those pancakes!
We all had such a great time!

In another coupe of weeks, you can catch more bluegills and use them as squirt guns. The water should be warm enough for them to be spawning. Yikes, what fun with fish. Ha Opa.

Looks like a fun time. (Camping and the Livestock show). I hope you got a better nights sleep at home.
