Family camping

We spent our weekend camping at a State Park not too far from home. We were a part of a large group mostly folks that John works with and other friends thrown in. We all had a great time. There was fishing, riding bikes, relaxing, cooking, eating, and more of the same.  Unlike previous trips with this group, the weather was fantastic. People even wanted to go swimming! IN May! I was not one of the swimming people, but I did watch from the shade.

We had planned long ago to bring the RV. Once we saw the weather forecast (80 degrees on Sat) I wondered if the RV would be too hot. Thankfully our site had lots of shady trees, so we were fine.  It was a different experience using the RV in warm weather. We used it as a glorified tent. It held our stuff and we slept in it. Cooking, eating, and doing dishes all happened outside.

Happy Mothers Day!

Early Summer

This year it never really felt like we had winter. I know many other parts of the country had too much winter, but for us it never really came. Spring was early too, and now, it just feels like summer. 
We have even been to the drive in movie theater.

Hanging out with some chick.

Last weekend we went on a great hike with friends.

 

 The kids really enjoyed throwing rocks into the river. Okay, everyone enjoyed throwing rocks into the river, not just the kids.  One rock looked back at us.

Another day on a walk along the sound I saw a sand dollar.

Fun in the Florida Sun

Odin and I went to visit grandma and grandpa in Florida for spring break last week. We had a fantastic time.

Horsing around

Winter Carnival

Despite the general lack of snow and wintry weather, White Pass was able to build a snow castle for the Winter Carnival. Some friends came up and skied and played with us for the day. It was sunshine and smiles all around.
