Camping

After my exciting day getting Scott's birthday present taken care of, I had to hurry and get home to pack for camping. I was really excited to go, because this was going to be the only time we could go this year, and it was McKenzie's first time. I've had a lot of friends tell me how good their babies slept camping, and I was really looking forward to doing this. Well, we got up there late Friday night, and McKenzie was not liking the whole camping experience. I am guessing that it got in the 30's at night and so it was FREEZING. Poor McKenzie would start freaking out every time I tried to lay her down for bed. Finally, at 2:00 in the morning I got McKenzie to stay asleep with me inside my sleeping bag. Well, this lasted an hour and a half. So now it's 3:30 we are jam packed in this campsite and yes, I am the annoying couple with the screaming baby waking everybody up. Well, Scott's new DVD player in his truck came in handy as I sat inside watching Transformers until poor McKenzie cried herself to sleep again. This time she actually did sleep through the night, but I didn't since I had to hold her all night. So, I told Scott that we could stay there as late as he wanted Saturday night, but I was not staying overnight again. We had a really fun time that day being on the lake all day, hiking, 4-wheeling, and eating good food. And best of all, sleeping in our own beds that night!

What a life. Chillin' on the dock eating licorice.

This was our little nature hike. It was fun enjoying the view, and being with these fun friends and cute kids!
