CAMPING!!!

We had a wonderful weekend in the mountains camping with Nel and Jen. It was Adelee and Gordie's first camping trip...and it was Nel's first time too!

The kids had a GREAT time playing in the dirt, climbing on fallen trees and big rocks, going in and out of the tents, and just being outside in the fresh air. Adelee was blown away at the stars and Gordie was so cute pointing up at the sky. We were all AMAZED at the star filled sky (I forgot what a night sky really looks like!)

On the way home, we stopped at a part of southern California that is all Apple and Cherry Orchards. We were sad the find out that the crop was bad this year because of a late frost...but the area was beautiful and the kids did get to play with some chickens and a pig. It is a place we will be back to next year in hopes of picking some apples!!!

Smores done with no campfire...too dry :(
