Campout 2008

This was the 5th annual camp out with the Cone/Hanson Families. We had a few more families with us this year and we had a great time. We had a base camp where everyone ate, sat at the campfire, played dominoes and socialized. We lucked out with the weather and it was sunny and beautiful. There were thirteen kids from the ages of 6 months to 10 years old. They all got along well and loved playing in the sand, river, and at the swing set/big toy together. The food was always delicious and it was nice to have everyone help with the cooking and cleaning up this year. Our family slept in our tent and it was really chilly at night. Here are some pictures that we wanted to share.

We had a great time and we didn't want to leave. We are so looking forward to next year and seeing everyone again. Thanks everyone for the great conversations, food, laughs and FUN this year! See you soon!
