Camping photos! (sorry if you have Flickr blocked – they won’t work)

Pie iron cooking – We made breakfast sandwiches with bacon, eggs and cheese. Yum!

Zoa decided to take a nap in the sunshine. Good idea!

Dave had to do some last homework to finish up his Masters during the weekend. I think his face says “this sucks” quite well.

Spider! This thing was HUGE! At least for spiders in MN. We “ushered” it off into the woods away from our food and chairs.


It rained for a couple hours, so we ended up in Alyson’s huge tent, playing Farkel. And then we wussed out and ran to the nearby casino to get something hot to drink out of the rain (and left poor Sam and Zoa at the campsite-no dogs allowed in the casino).

Dave, Jess and Sam getting breakfast in the AM. More bacon. Yum!

Overall, camping was great. It was too bad it rained, and the biggest problem with that was that our site had a LOT of trees, so even once the rain was done we didn’t get the sun in there to dry it all out. But most of the time the weather was awesome.

ps. Ryan was there – he just didn’t get any photos of himself.

In other news…I’m sorry I haven’t been keeping the blog updated as much lately. There is a lot going on in our lives right now, but I feel kind of like Jess, where we aren’t at liberty to talk about it all right now, but it’s foremost on my mind and so it’s hard to talk about anything else (no, we aren’t moving half-way across the country, which is what their news was). I promise we will update you once things are decided, though! Hopefully soon!
