Anderson Reservoir 2012
This was such a fun and needed trip. We went with only one of our kids and then Paul and Jess had Miss Aizy who is just the cutest baby on the planet. I mean I am very partial to my own kids, but she is the happiest little thing ever and we had a fun time watching her during the camping trip. Augie and Aizy were both good lil' campers we had a great time with them. I love my other kids, but it was fun having some mom and dad time.
Jess and I slept in the trailer with Aizy and Augie and I am very grateful for Xtreme Motors for donating the trailer or it would have been a very short trip because it was so hot during the day that the tents were not an options for babies to sleep in.
We went with Paul, Jess, & Aizy, Brianne and Clint, Chris, and then Jack and Kona were there together. Friday night we celebrated Clint's birthday by roasting smores :)
This was Friday morning; after everyone left on the boat I laid Augie down for a nap and he slept the whole time they were gone so I laid out, read my book, and got in the water whenever I got too hot it was perfect! I could not go on the boat since Augie is so little and I could not wake board anyways because when we left I was almost 5 weeks after giving birth and so it was not my time yet to participate in any strenuous activities, but I really enjoyed my moments to relax and rest in such a beautiful place!
My lil' camper
On Friday late afternoon the babies were getting hot and so were the adults so we decided to drive into Pine and cool off with AC in the car. We all got ice cream treats from the little convenience store which was exactly what we all needed, but when we got back there was some nice winds and a little rain that none of us were expecting, but good thing we got back when we did because the awning fell down and Brianne and Clint's tent blew over. The same thing happened on Saturday at about the same time, but this time Clay's tent blew over...crazy wind!
The choppy water from the wind storm!
Every morning Augie was all smiles and I loved it!
It was nice to be able to give Augie a bath in the trailer sink so he could stay clean!!
Clay is getting Clint's birthday "candle" (a burning marshmallow) for him to blow out while we all sang Happy Birthday to him!!
It is kind of hard to tell, but all the little bumps are bug bites. The bugs were horrible and luckily Augie did not get ONE bug bite, but Clay on the other hand looked like he had chicken pox! They were all over him, but being Clay he acted like no big deal while the rest of us were going nuts!!
The hot hubby jumping the wake! Clint and Brianne stayed behind with Augie so I could go out on the boat once. It was so nice and I was able to wash my hair too, because the boat had a hose that runs hot lake water when the engine is on. It was freezing in the lake when I jumped in so it was nice to rinse off with warm water!!
