First Camping Trip of Season




Our first camping trip of the season was over Memorial weekend. It rained most of the time mostly just a constant drizzle during the day but it poured on Saturday night leaving a lot of mud. Of course Monday the day we are supposed to leave turned out to be beautiful.

Here is Sadie with snails crawling all over her, she loves bugs and things. I bet this brings back memories for my mom. (When I was small I had collected snails on a camping trip and my mom woke to find them crawling all over our camper walls)

Sadie, Skyler, Lexie posing in front of the castle. I love to tease Mark about rolling out the huge green carpet he keeps in front of his trailer to keep the dirt out and bringing a castle. The girls love to play in it.

Lexie and Sadie are best buddies.

Kristen and Mike

Kristen is an awesome friend that has known me for a long time, she is such a patient person and looks past any flaws not just in me but all people. She has the highest level of tolerance I have ever seen. Thank goodness she puts up with me.

Mark and Angie


I am really guilty of not taking many pictures this trip. The place was beautiful and green with types of wild flowers that I have never seen before. We had a blast hanging out with friends as always. Ty and I have really come to appreciate some of our close friends these last couple of years and we have realized that good friends are not that easy to come by. I am talking about friends that have stuck with us through the years and know that we are not perfect but still want to hang out, we are lucky. What would we do without them?

What a fun time you had. I love camping! It's harder in Texas with the heat and humidity, but still hope to do more of it.

I agree about friends. Good ones make our lives so much better!

Halen finished up the soccer season last week. This was his third season and he was pretty agressive trying to help his team. He broke his pinky finger being goalie, but it didn't hold him back too much. Grandma and Grandpa Gerber and Jensen came to cheer him on. On one of the days that it looked as if the game would be cancelled due to rain, he said "Oh no, soccer is my life!" His sense of humor has been really something else this summer and he has said many things that have made us laugh.
