Camping, Camping, Camping!

Trap Shoot and Memorial Weekend in Manton this year were very low key and quite, but super fun and relaxing. Andrea & Dave had there baby just a week before Trap Shoot so they of course did not make it, the first time in over 10 years! But they did come to Memorial and enjoy some cool sunshine with a new baby. Macie just had a blast this year being chauffeured around by her future husband Gabriel ; - )  He is just small enough to drive the Barbie Jeep like a champ, Mace hasn't figured out the steering yet, only the gas!
Macie finally found a new passenger!
The kids LOVED playing "Mud Pies"...especially the little ones : - )
We did a lot of cooking and eating this year it seems like, but its always good food you would never eat at home. My watermelon was super yummy too, just takes a 4-wheeler to deliver to the perfect spot in the creek for chilling! Dad made strawberry short-cake with homemade biscuits and whip cream which was very very good...fed over 30 people! The weather was great, no rain and perfect 70+ degrees at Trap Shoot, but a little chilly and wet for Memorial, go figure!

Me and my Sis : - )

We had my dad's "War Wagon" to enjoy both weekends and that was super fun. It fits so many people comfortably its crazy. Plus it holds all the dogs and ice chests too! Tiffany and I decided we both want one : - ) Tiffany and Michael had there newest addition in tow this year also, little Zachery was only 5 weeks old on his first camping trip. Speaking of children...Phoenix (Tiff's black lab) was in heat once again and we have our fingers crossed that Tokin may have made "Love Children" with her FINALLY!! We know for sure Tucker pups will be coming, we just hope Tokin ones will too! Tokin and Phoenix have been love birds for years now...they really just love each other and have fun "making out" all weekend, its so cute.
