Camping

We went camping this weekend.  We had a fun time, although we weren't able to spend much time at the lake...the baling kept calling our names...
The time we did spend out there was fun, though.  Clarence didn't want to leave today.  Here are some pictures I took over the weekend...I finally put new pictures on my computer from my new camera! Yay!
 The Friday night sunset....just beautiful!


Saturday morning we stayed out until after lunch...the kids had fun eating snacks, going for walks, and playing with the animals.


Clarence loves his animals - they're by far his favorite toys!  He has them all set up in this picture eating rocks...

My beautiful, cheesy, gap-toothed, chubby, happy sleeping beauty.
She's such a great camper - if she's awake...getting her to sleep is another matter entirely...and I'm no good at it...only her daddy would do.


Jake, my friend Taryn's baby, was our camping buddy.  He's a darling, happy, chubby little boy.  And he loves to sing to his mommy.  :)


My friend, Taryn, with Adina at the beach today. 


Clarence playing at the beach...we've never really gone to the beach before.  I suppose I'm paranoid my kids would just run into the water and drown or something...not the case, though.  They're kinda scared of the water and just waded in up to their ankles.  Clarence used that purple pail in the picture to pour water on his entire body; hence the reason for the missing clothes.  A little girl at the beach told me it was gross he was wearing underwear....I wonder if she knows it's totally the same thing as wearing a swimming suit. 


The princess with the pail...she just walked around the beach and played with the sand toys. 


I hope to go to the beach again this summer.  The kids had way more fun than I was expecting, and I think if I brought some of their own sandbox toys with, they'd really enjoy themselves for a while. 


We had so much fun, but now we're home and back to reality. The kids raked hay with me this evening...I was worried it wasn't going to go well.  They did awesome! I brought their supper with and a book for each of them, and by spreading things out, they were occupied most of the time.
