Camping Memorial Day

We camped over Memorial Day at Walnut Hills Campground in Durand, MI with the Woodburys. The campground was a bit rustic, what with privies and all, but we all had a great time! There was a ton of fishing done. In fact, I believe it was the highlight of the trip for some. Grace ended up catching 20 fish and her friend Mallory caught 24! Great job girls! Greg got to do some fishing too, but he still hasn't learned which way to hold the pole. Good thing I love him so much! Too bad Mr. Woodbury never got to do any fishing - he was the official baiter and fisher taker offer. Our campsite was right on the Shiawassee River and the kids even swam in the river, much to Greg's shagrin. We didn't take bathing suits so all the swimming done was done in shorts and t-shirts. This was ok because it helped us fit in better. OK, now I know that was rude and un-called for, but I am trying to give you a feel for what it was like. We had a fabulous time and this was the inaugural trip for our new camper. It went well! However, the bike in the picture with Mallory on it did not fare so well. It was crushed by the big white truck. The picture with the shovel is when the mothers took "craft time" to a whole new level. The craft on the docket included using peanut butter, and since Mallory can't be around peanut butter we chose to commondeere a shovel and move our fire pit. Great job, moms!
