Weekend In Review

Friday ~ Very busy day!  After Lauryn and I got ready, we headed to the hardware store to get a key made for the camper, then to the grocery store to pick up a few things for camping.  On our way home, we stopped at B.C. Pizza and had the buffet for lunch.  When we got back, I had laundry to catch up on, a little light cleaning to do and then I had to finish packing the camper.  When Lloyd got home, we hooked the camper to the truck and headed out to Double R Ranch.  We pulled into our site and got everything unpacked and set up.  It was late when we finished so Lauryn and I had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, chips and pickles and later, Lloyd cooked a couple of hot dogs over the fire.  There was only one camper next to us and it turned out we knew of each other!  Lauryn had a difficult time getting to sleep, as she's only ever slept in her bed at home, but once she was down, Lloyd and I relaxed by the fire.

Saturday ~ We all slept in and it was great!  I made pancakes, fried potatoes with onions and bacon for breakfast.  After we cleaned up, we headed to the pool.  Lauryn hadn't been in a pool, other than her kiddie pool, and she wasn't too sure about it at first.  It took a few minutes but then she got used to it.  When we were done, my mom came out and had dinner with us.  We visited with the neighbors, my mom knew one of them from work.  For dinner, we had burgers, baked potatoes, macaroni and egg salad and grilling beans.  We sat around the fire for a little while and then mom headed home.  Lauryn went to bed much easier and Lloyd and I sat around the neighbors campfire and talked with them for hours.  It was fun!

Sunday ~ I woke up hearing the thud of Lauryn falling out of her bed.  Luckily, it's close the the floor so she didn't get hurt or upset.  We had breakfast, cleaned up and headed to the pool again.  Lauryn enjoyed it a lot more this time and even got a little braver.  When we got back, we packed up the camper and headed home.  It didn't take long to unpack, mostly just food and dirty clothes, because I had bought a lot of things that will stay in the camper.  Lauryn and I took long naps in the afternoon while Lloyd mowed the lawn.  We had an easy dinner of ham sandwiches, leftover macaroni salad, beans and chips.  We relaxed the rest of the evening, camping really takes it out of you :)
