Our cozy little camp site. This year for the 4th of July, we met our best friends from Wisconsin, Kathy and Orien and their 2 cute little girls, Abby and Emmy, half way in Ohio at East Harbor State Park. We had such a great time, but missed Sam and Carrie (who were supposed to come but a kidney stone kept them away:(
Another shot of the camp site
Kathy and Orien at the fire pit
YUM! We made such good food for camping and the dutch oven that we borrowed really helped us make some delicious food!
Matthew was such a good boy pretty much the whole time and liked hanging out in here. Otherwise, he would have way exceeded his daily dose of fiber by eating tree bark and other tasty things he would have found.
Abby and Evan making a home for the worms they found.
Abby was such a cute little animal rescuer
Evan playing his Leapster for a break
Having fun at the beach...this was Lake Erie
Benjamin loved the water and waves and walked most of the way out to the rocks you see in the background...really shallow water.
Evan had more fun playing in the sand.
Kathy and Emmy catching some little waves
Matthew liked strolling out with Ben and Benjamin and checking out the water

It seems like you guys had a fun camping trip! How long did you stay there? The video is so adorable! The little guy is getting so big and he is so cute, just like his brothers. :) We have been looking at tents but we never get them because Jody wants to camp in the middle of the woods and I am afraid of bears and mountain cats, so no no for me... I will be happy to go to the camping areas. Oh well...
