Camping 2012

We just returned from the big family reunion camping trip of 2012.  Every year, Nathaniel's family gets together at a state park and camps as a unit for about a weekend.  We (and several others) went on Thursday, and by Friday evening, everyone that could come had arrived.  Our site was hopping with 8 kids and 4 adults, since we had our friends with us.  Many sites have a camper and a tent or two, so that we can all fit as many people into our sites as possible.  The weather was beautiful, and we had already started loading up when it started to sprinkle this morning, so we were able to get packed up fairly well with little dampness.  The kids had a ball:

The boys enjoyed playing Heroica with Jake and Aunt Autumn

My kids all love owls, so the nature center's stuffed animal corner was a hit.
