Our camping weekend.

Mom and Dad took me camping to a place called Pokagon. Apparently mom has been camping there since she was a kid. I guess every fall for the past 20 or so years, the Seiberts and the Meyers have been camping together. So they finally took me to join in the fun too.

This is my new friend Emily. She was very nice and patient with me and knows all the rules to lawn golf, rodeo golf, hillbilly golf, or whatever you're calling it these days.

My second cousins Kaylee and Ben came out to visit for the day.

Here's Kaylee, Ben, and I. Ben liked chewing on that bell when he wasn't busy cuddling my mom.

Grandpa took me to the playground every morning. And every time we walked the 10 minutes to get there, the playground had the same laxative effect and someone would have to walk back to get a diaper.

Mom says they've replaced most of the playground equipment since she was a kid. But they did have this old toy. It was made of metal and had exposed springs!!! Yikes! Call the authorities!

We went down to the beach and an impromptu game of football broke out.

You can imagine the amount of skill that was present when the Seiberts, Meyers, and Singers joined forces. Even though it's the coolest sport ever, there's a reason they all ran cross country.

Finally, we got a group picture. We had a great time and can't wait til next year.
