Jimmy and Foxy don't want to get left behind




This past weekend we went camping at Nerstrand Big Woods State Park with my sister and her family. We had a lovely campsite with lots of room for the kids to play. Carrie and Charles made shish kabobs on Friday night when we arrived. Smores followed dinner, of course. After David and Greta went to bed we showed Bobby what a Satellite is and watched the stars. On Saturday we had pancakes for breakfast, went for a short hike, played at the playground, napped and had burgers for dinner. Bobby was quite entertaining at the campfire asking Charles telling Charles "Tell that story again but this time make it funnier". David required a ride in the car to make him go to sleep. We ended the weekend with eggs and bacon for breakfast and headed back home. Another fun weekend of camping!
