S’mores & Snores
Ward campouts always lead one to the most unique expereinces. This year our campground was nestled on the top of a little hill in Escondido. This was the view from the campsite. Even though we were just down the road from civilization, we still had a good time.
What can I say? Our idea of late night fun is thanks to many years of me practicing writing my name backward on shower door fog. Oh the joy of glowsticks – appropriate for all ages!
I do believe my kids took the prize for dirtiest looking orphan children. The dirt ring in my bathtub can bear testament of that. Either way, the trip was filled with skits, dirt, Eucalyptus smoked marshmallows, peach and cherry cobbler, glowsticks (thanks to Buzz), breakfast burritos, disc golf, paddle boat and a little bit of horseshoes. On a sidenote: Paddle boating yields very little results for the amount of energy invested, especially when Hudson got to steer. We zigged and zagged our way around the lake. Annie tried to help by dangling her kicking feet off the back of the boat to help speed things along – to no avail. Thank goodness the paddleboat showdown between the Bradley’s and Wetzger’s never quite came to a head. Classification fo this ward campout…success!
Wow! The view is great! And the glow-stick thing is pretty cool! Don’t think I could do that very fast…
