you sleep there.. right there. in the middle of the field, there.

So we had our annual Ward Campout last weekend. It was a blast. The kids had lots of fun, lots of candy, lots of running around. Pretty much a lot of NON supervision. We adults had more important things to do like play Hand and Foot. Anyway, when we pulled in we were one of the last ones to arrive, can you believe that. Brian actually works for a living and can't get out of work early for camping. What ever! Anyway, we get there and pretty much all the spots were taken except for the ones that required above ground sleeping.. like you know, on stilts, above the water. Since we left THAT tent at home we were forced to sleep in the middle of the field right next to the big bonfire. Hmmmm.. can anyone say 'Thanks Freebairns for saving us a spot??" LOL. so, ya, this is our tent, in the field. It worked out fine. Not my fault when Maddy woke up at 2am and screamed her head off for a good 15 minutes and woke up most the camp... if we were in a spot on the side in the back of the campground you all would have slept way more peaceful! hahahahaha






















this is a picture from Brian and Maddy's morning walk to the lake.
This is so beautiful. We live in the prettiest place on planet Earth. I know, true huh??! Its naturally breathtaking.

We still had a lot of fun. I think our spot was fine, just not so wooded. At least we weren't sleeping in the water!

Oh man, your so funny Vicki, and just for the record, I didn't hear her at 2am, I had my own restless kids that I was putting tape over their mouths so they wouldn't wake anyone, didn't anyone tell you to bring tape?
