First time camping . . .

. . . for Miss Lexi and my in-laws over Memorial Day Weekend at Yuba Lake. Yes, we took almost 8-month-year old Lexi and two full-grown city-slickers camping. It was beautiful, wonderful and we had a wonderful time. Alexia slept amazingly well, I think even better than at home (if that is possible), Jacob was able to play in the freezing water, we all got fresh air and made wonderful memories.


**I LOVE these pants, I've had them forever, but they just fit oooo soo well. Since getting huge holes in each knee, they have been mostly reserved for my camping days, I just can't get rid of them.






**And my new camping trick . .
Cook tin-foil dinners at home, and take them piping hot to the campground. Nobody has to starve while the fire and coals get going and dinner is cooked. It's wonderful, dinner is ready, everybody is happy and then we can spend the evening cooking smores, popcorn (jiffy pop, is that what it is called), pigs in a blanket, and other yummy but unhealthy camping treats!

We are pathetic. Both of us were born and raised in Utah and we've never been to Yuba Lake before.
