The Baby Jail

We've been talking with our friends, the Wells, about camping for 3 years now... but it never seemed to be the right time. So seeing that the weekend was going to be beautiful, we jumped at the chance. Four other familes (Suttons, Emorys, Walters, & Brueggemans) joined in on the fun too!
Jackson was beside himself with anticipation all week. I had no idea what to expect with taking my 10.5 month old camping. It required taking 1/2 of our house with us for just one night out!
One thing I had forgotten.... Camping = voluntary sleep deprivation. Hannah and Jackson stirred around quite a bit, but stayed quiet. At 4:30AM she woke us up saying "Dada! Hi-eeee!!!". Thankfully, we were able to get her back to sleep! Jackson's first words at daylight were "that was the longest night EVER!".
Other than the lack of great sleep, we had a wonderful time. :) Highlights according to Jack were: jumping on the air mattress with his buddies, fishing, eating s'mores, swimming with Ty in their clothes, catching bugs and frogs, throwing rocks and things into the lake, and peeing on trees (sorry to gross ya out there).
He's already asking to go again. Hopefully we can make this experience happen more often!
[jackson has decided that getting his picture taken is something to avoid at all costs... if any of you that went got a good pics of my family, please send them to me!]

Boy! this all makes us remember the fun times we camped when you guys were little (first summer you were only 5 mos, and yes we survived). It really makes me sad that Jackson doesn't want his pic taken. Please tell him I'm having withdrawals and need to see him badly!
