First camping trip!

This was the first time we have been camping since Dan and I have been married, that's at least 7 years!! It was also Jade's first time and she did great! She had so much fun playing in the dirt. She kept on wanting to go into the forest to see snakes (we did see one and then I would not let her go near the edge of the campsite). By the time we left she was so dirty. She slept great but woke up as soon as the sun went up at 5:45am. She had her first otter pop and first s'more. I also realized that I have no picture of our friends that came with us. Scott, Lindsey and baby Emmett came too. It was fun to have some friends to sit around the campfire with. I have to also mention that we learned this weekend that little Jade is just like mommy with regards to getting sick in the car. The drive home was super windy and I was getting really sick and was about to tell Dan to pull over. Jade started to cry and threw up all over. Poor girl. I feel bad that I passed on that terrible trait to her. We got home and were all so tired that we ended up not even watching any fireworks. We are excited to now have a tent so we can have many more fun camping adventures!

When she was sitting on this rock she said, "Mommy, I'm touching a butterfly web." It was a HUGE spider web!

First S'more and loving it!
