Just last Monday, Jarrett officially began another semester towards earning his MBA. Basically, what that means is that I get A LOT more time with my kids. It's a wonderful thing, yet I tend to feel a little overwhelmed with the added responsibilities. Jarrett's work schedule along with his school schedule is down right CRAZY!!! But, it has been a couple of weeks now, and I think we are now getting back to the groove of things.
One of the fun things we did before Jarrett kicked off his first day back to studying was take a family camping trip. We had a BLAST!!! We have been talking about camping for a long time now. We also wanted to have something we could start as a tradition in our family that would harbor many fun memories! So, take a look at our first camping trip! We can't wait to go again!
Daddy and Annalise hammering stakes for the tent.
It's up! I had to get a family pic with the tent. Love those camera timers!
The girls enjoying their first camp fire!
We also found a game of horse shoes on clearance at Walmart!
Back at the fire with Marshmallows this time!
Can you tell which child has NO fear?
The next morning we cooked pancakes and sausage on the grill! Yummy times!
Time for fishing!
Annalise's very 1st fish! She also caught a 1 ft. Bass! Bummer that I didn't get it on film!

Annalise is learning how to hook a minnow. She actually touched them!
Allison liked the tackle box (aka TOY box)!
The toys are yummy!
Sweet Picture!!!!!!

We hope to take in a couple more camping trips before the typical Florida weather comes back!

That looks like so much fun! We have done a lot of things with our kids, but have yet to try real TENT CAMPING. It looked fun. it makes me actually want to try it... in the winter that is... mama doesn't do florida heat & mosquitos in the summer. :)
Very cute pictures!! We are ready for a trip now!
Gary and I love to camp - at Camp Holiday Inn, Camp Ramada and my personal favorite Camp Radisson...
aWhat a fun camping trip! Looks like ya'll had a great time!
You finally went camping! I remember we talked about this several times....
We LOVE camping! Just last week, Victor asked if we were going camping (we where on our way out the door to got to Target or something like that and it was COLD...) I am not sure where the idea came from, but he wanted to go....
We don't fish though, not near enough patience, we do however catch crawdads.
I so want to go camping! I love it! We are gonna have to invest in a tent...anyway, these photos are wonderful. So glad you had a good time!
Love the timer pictures..how many did you have to take for them to turn out so cute?
I do really want to go camping..I can't figure out how to do it with Joshua. We may just have to wait until nect winter.
Camping is fun - get a camper it is even more fun.
love amanda
