So, I guess I'll let the photos tell the story of our fun weekend. Just a bit of background--about six months ago, our neighbors asked if we would be interested in going camping with them and one other family. I said "sure" because, well, that's my usual response. As the time grew closer and I started thinking about the specific details of the three days we would be sleeping away from our beds, I started to have second thoughts but the kids were excited and Chris was in Marine logistician mode making plans so, to use a military term, I "executed the plan". It was great except that I found it almost impossible to sleep. That, and the bathrooms were quite yucky. So, no showers all weekend. But, we survived and are talking about "next time"--which won't be anytime soon because summer has come to Texas (what a relief :)
