Happy Little Inchworm

While we were camping, I found a little inchworm. My wife took the opportunity to take a video of it and my son decided to cheer the little guy on. I can hear how cute my son thinks the inchworm is in the pitch and tone of his voice. I laugh every time I watch it.

Here's a still shot of the little guy before the video was shot. My thumb took the focus on this one.

Back from Camping

Well, we made it through the 3 day weekend. It was a very relaxing time and the kids had an absolute blast. We met my sister-in-law and her kids half way at Circle B Campground in Angola, IN. We had never been to this campground before, but we we were very happy with how nice it was. It was a little chilly and overcast most of the weekend, especially with the breeze coming off the lake, but I would much rather have that than 90 degrees and no shade.

Here's a few pics from the trip. Enjoy!

This was the view from our campsite, right on Hogback Lake.

There's our tent and clothesline. The beach and docks are in the background.

You can't do camping without some baked beans in a skillet over the fire. 

Here was our mascot for the weekend. Meet Mr. Inch Worm.

Our fire pit that kept us warm during the evening hours.

Here's my attempt to get a picture of the supermoon on Saturday. It was covered by clouds most of the early evening, so I couldn't get a picture until the clouds cleared out.

This was our first night. Full moon over Hogback Lake.

A Camping We Will Go

My wife and I are going to take the kids camping this weekend. I'm glad it's going to be a warmer weekend. It might even be warm enough to go swimming, but we'll wait and see. We've embraced the whole camping thing and have a pretty size-able inventory of camping gear.

Here's some pictures from our first camping trip last year with our boys. It was one of the hottest weekends of the year, but we still had a blast.

Did I tell you it was extremely hot with no breeze? This was my attempt to cool down.

Chillin' out at the fire pit.

Late night fire chats.

The mud pit. Yes, our kids made it into the pit and back again.
