ALMOST TIME FOR CAMPING!

It's April 1st! Almost tax time (yuk), and almost time for camping (hooray)! We weren't able to do much camping last year, but we hope to make up for it this year! The kids LOVE to go camping! It always seems like life is so much easier and "slow paced" when you're camping! Wouldn't it be nice if life could always be so care-free?! Those of you who are campers will know what I'm talking about!

I wonder what Kacie will think of camping! I know one thing for sure....it won't be too hard for her to have a good time!! Goodness, I hope she comes home while the weather still PERMITS camping! Oh who am I kidding?! We were camping on Halloween last year! Certainly she will be home by then!! I think last Halloween was our favorite camping trip ever! They had hay rides for the kids, costume contests, trick-or-treating from campsite to campsite, a haunted barn, and even a haunted hayride at night through the forest (nothing too scary)! It was TONS of fun!!

It helps to think of fun things we'll do when Kacie gets home! There are so many things we can't wait to do with her....knowing they will be "firsts" for her!

Hope everyone is having a great week! Are any of you doing anything special for Spring Break?! We're staying home....taking care of our four sick kids! FOUR....yes ALL FOUR are now sick!!

I'll leave you with some camping pictures from last year.......
