The kids did this:
I didn't mind it when Kali did this:
I didn't mind it when the kids came back from exploring with a dead crayfish:
Or that The Buckets wouldn't get on the raft but donned his life vest all day:
What I did mind was spending almost an entire night with Kali sitting on my head. At one point I looked at her through the fog of night and whispered yelled (all moms know what a whisper yell is right?) "STOP IT! STOP IT ! STOP IT!" And when completely exasperated and at my whits end I thrust her into her playpen to let her scream it out, and what do I find? A frog. In her playpen. Sleeping with my 14 month old. A frog. Nice. Done.

Those are great pictures! What fun! I'm sure they loved it!
Karen you are just like me,I do not get too excited about camping.but it look's like the family were having fun! Athough going by his photo I was not too sure how much fun master Riley was having. By the way I want him back!
That is great! We had a frog in our lawn unknown to us until Mike was mowing the lawn and he jumed out onto the drive way from under the mower w/o a head. YUCK!
Maybe I won't continue to encourage the camping trip I was planning! Thanks for the warning.
okay see! that is why we do not camp! i am always so envious when i see my friends camping pictures and then i think, ya right! princess emma would scream the whole night! and makenzie would talk the entire night asking me what every sound was. and then there's the whole sleeping with a frog thing! yeah, no thanks! if i'm going to camp, it'll be in my own backyard! it still looks like fun though!
Karen, you and Christina can commiserate (ask her about ouir Labor Day Weekend campout for the labor Day Pow Wow we just attended some time). She likes sleeping in a tent, the actual sleeping part, but jsut about everything else, she'd rather just not be part of. That's why *I'm* the one who takes the kids camping and most of the time lets her stay at home (LOL!).
Look on the bright side, they get bigger and more capable, and then camping becomes less stressful (although they *still* don't pull their weight on the campouts... I have a Life Scout who's an expert on camping, but do you think he helped out at *all* last weekend? NOOOO!!!!!! (LOL!)
