Oh a-camping we did go...

So, last Thursday, we went camping. Joy, Kevin, Catherine, Meredyth, Ryan, Lilly, Phebe and me.

Kevin made my car look ten times cooler with a canoe on top.

He also put one on his. Did he color coordinate, you ask? Yes.

We arrived at our campsite in the George Washington National Forest. Our site was RIGHT ON Lake Moomaw. We only had to walk about 50 feet to get to the lake.

My new tent! (see really can't sleep)

It. Had. A. Dog. Door!!! (actual tent box called it a "beverage door". So you can reach out and grab a beverage. I think, duh, it's a dog door for a fluff muppet)

My big meal of the weekend was "Hobo dinners." A complete throw back to camping while on Chop Point trips. It's potatoes, onions, carrots, zucchini, ground beef, salt, pepper, A-1 sauce and little bit of butter. You put that foil buddy on the fire for about 20 minutes and

mmm mmm mmm.

We went hiking one day. Phebe was a pretty good little hiker!

One of the overlooks on our hike. There is an island out there in the lake. That will come into play in a minute. Remember where that island is located.

We set up shop.

And on Saturday, we canoed (the boys canoed the most) over to the Island where we played, swam, ate, and just had a great time. Phebe even swam for the first time, too. Also, Joy is 7 months pregnant and looks amazing!

We did a lot of sitting and talking, playing dominoes and card games and laughing.

Sunkissed camping girls... me, Catherine, Meredyth and Joy. (and baby!)

What a wonderful, relaxing trip! :)
