Camp Grace

Saturday after the Cowboys beat Virginia, Kendall and I took the kids up to a family camp that i have been going to since i was a small child. We had a lot of fun, Kendall even won the ping pong tournament and the prize was a gift certificate to pizza hut. :) yum. We ended up staying until Monday morning in a small little cabin, with Karen and Zach in the other side of it.

Here is Kendall and Aidan overlooking the "frog pond" a pond near the camp. This pond is stinky and green, and i think half of my family has been thrown in it at least one time over the years as a camp tradition. yuck!
We had a bonfire Sunday night, singing songs and enjoying the beautiful weather. Later after it was put out Aidan ended up waking up at 4am this morning, this is very strange for him and he continued to cry and scream for quite sometime, we took him outside to rock him under the stars to settle him down, and Kendall noticed that the fire pit was lit up again. Apparently it was still hot enough that when the wind picked up it restarted, a very scary situation since it is so dry up there. My dad put it out, and he said he when he was completely done putting out the rest of the fire for good, he heard Aidan stop crying...was Aidan(means fiery one) warning us? Heh, it's quite the coincidence for sure!
Here is the next generation campers we joke, there were 6 babies all a year or younger, you can see 5 here, the 6th one is sleeping to the right in a stroller. Layla really took to the little 10 month old standing by Aidan.
Here is a story. We brought the baby monitor to carry around so we could hear the kids cry if we were across camp from them. Anyway, yesterday Layla woke up from her nap before Aidan, so i took her and left Kendall with the monitor why he was playing basketball. This is what he told me, he heard some movement over the monitor and was waiting for Aidan to talk when he heard this "Do you want Daddy to get you?" At this point i imagine he panicked. He took off running up the hill to see who the heck was in our cabin getting Aidan claiming to be "daddy!" When he got there, nobody was there. Turns out that another family had a baby monitor also and we had picked up theres. hehe.
At Chapel (we only got to stay for the singing since the kids were real restless) my Dad, Karen, Zach, and our Pastor's daughter Kayla all sang a special, so i had to take a picture of that :)
Just 2 of the 5 wild turkeys that were hanging around. Thought i'd snap a picture of them hehe.
