Camping with the In-Laws...

   So, a few weeks ago our little family made the trek down to Oregon for some camping with my in-laws. I highly recommend Milo McIver park near Estacada. The bathrooms were well taken care of and the on-duty park attendents were WONDERFUL!
   After survivng the bees in our campsite, Grandpa Jess's much too friendly elderly MALE dog, not to mention the HEAT!! We plan on going camping next year only for FIVE whole days! I know am I CRAZY?? but really we had a great time! Alyssa didn't even have to go without tv since her Uncle Dan brought his laptop and she got to watch Toy Story over and over and over again (she was happy!). Michaela LOVED getting dirty as she crawled around the campsite trying to eat ANYTHING she possibly could ( this includes pine cones!). Chris and I on the other hand...well I think next time we will take an air matress and I am NEVER sharing a sleeping bag with Michaela EVER again! ;-)

Alyssa had a ball and WAY too much sugar but thats what camping is all about right? She loved roasting marshmellows and making s'mores and no matter how many of those things she ate, she fell into bed every night exausted! Which means my mission was accomplished ;-)
