We're getting to the end of the weekly pictures. Maybe next week I'll actually post on time to end on a good note. We'll see. It's summer and life it pretty busy around here.
We went camping this weekend. Actually I'm not sure if we did or not. We went to the campsite with friends and made it until 10:30pm when all three of us started getting rained on (inside the tent). Since rain was predicted the rest of the night we decided to pack up before we were completely soaked and cold. So we were really only at the park for a day. However, we did get the full joy of a short night of sleep and unpacking wet muddy things the next day which seems to be half of the fun of camping!
It was quite an exciting adventure overall seeing that when Henry and I got to the park we were instructed to go to the park office basement with workers and other campers because there was a tornado warning. At that time I also got a call from Derek (who was biking there) that he was hearing a siren and trying to decide if he should stop. Hmmmm. Needless to say we all made it there safely and had a much less adventurous trip than our other friends who were biking (in the rain & lots of wind, with tornado sirens, and bike mechanical issues, and directional challenges) We had a nice dinner together and Derek, Henry and I got a taste of what camping would be like. We promptly came home and started shopping to replace our 9 year old tent--that seems to be not so waterproof as it once was. (Unfortunately we didn't get any camping pictures since we didn't think about it when it wasn't raining.) Also, fortunately we had made a brilliant decision to leave Zoe (the dog) at home. Very good choice in rainy weather.

Sounds like quite the adventure. We'll have to take the cousins camping when they are a little older. And maybe we can let the dogs come too. Everyone remembers how much Casey loves to swim! :)
