Camping with the boys 2008

For the third year in a row we camped with the boys and their mom. This year we ended up in the tent (last year we bypassed the state park due to storms and went to a cabin). We went to southeastern MN. This year we had a new addition to our fabulous fun moms and kids camping ... baby Jacob! What a blessing to have him in our lives. Jacob was a rock star, totally laid back about everything (except when we left him in the car while Deb and I manually held our rain fly over our tent during a surprise rain ... we eventually hooked that rainfly on permanently, lesson learned!). Isaac and Nathan were fun as always, totally getting into every aspect of camping (especially the parts involving ice cream, smores, hiking candy ...). Lucy was fiesty all day on Sunday but really became tranquil come Sunday night. Turns out she was running a fever. After shivering herself to sleep (poor thing) she woke up a little less hot but still really down and out. Lucy spent the day in the stroller or in my arms. After adding tylenol to the fever reducing mix she napped and woke up a little better. Tonight she regained some energy and the fever stayed down to a manageable level. Enjoy the ontage.

Hi, Stacy. I am Carver, Lily, and Zinabu's grandmother. (Also, Cathy's mom and David's "other mother") They leave tomorrow morning at 3:00am for Minn. Wish I could meet you and Lucy, too. Have a wonderful, blessed time hugging everyone on Sat. Consider this a hug as well. You are simply a SUPER mom!
