Happy Campers


We went camping this past weekend with our Church. We headed northeast to Hurkey Creek Campground which is right near Idyllwild. We had a fabulous time frolicking in the freezing cold river, playing in the big grassy field, riding bikes, having a water balloon fight, roasting marshmallows, singing to the Lord and freezing our buns off. It was a bit colder at night than we were anticipating...low 30's. The only one who really was freezing was poor little skinny bones, Jaedyn. Between his horrible allergies (which worsened with the dry cold weather) and not being able to breathe and just plain not having enough layers on (bad mom!) we actually made a last minute decision and headed home early at about 9pm on Sat. night. Despite my frozen toes, Jaedyn's frozen body and my broken camera lens (I know...tragic) we had a blast and will return again next year for the annual GVC camping trip!












All campers take note...we shared our site with some friends of ours who cooked us up a special treat. Pillsbury rolls wrapped around a dowel....


toasted to perfection.....take out dowel....

insert item of choice..for Jared...a sausage...for me Nuttela and peanut butter!! Yummmy!










Jaedyn lucked out...the water balloon did not explode!











Jaedyn assisted David during our worship time on Sat. night....the rest of the kids danced around on the stage. Video clip to follow...
