Camping in the Cold









Last weekend we took advantage of Mommom and Poppop's long weekend and went camping. Just the day before we left Raleigh the weather was in the 80's. Then a cold front hit just as we were leaving town. We had a cold rainy start to our camping weekend.

Mommom, Poppop, Uncle Phil, Megan, Aunt Elizabeth, Uncle Mark, cousin Matthew joined in the cold camping fun. We were able to celebrate Phil and Matthew's birthdays. We had cake and candles under the screenhouse in the rain.

Although the highs were only in the 50's and lows in the low 40's we had great time together. They rain was gone Sat. morning. We had a steady warm campfire. We took turns cooking and doing dishes. It was great to be with everyone. We excited to see Matthew walking and talking. We hadn't seen him since April when we exposed him to the chicken pox.


We left our camera at home but Megan took some amazing pictures and shared them. Thanks Megan! Mommom also shared... It is great to have these pictures.

We look forward to going again with everyone. Hopefully, it will be warmer and not wet.
