Our First Family Camping Trip Is Officially Under Way

Let's hope the construction of the tent isn't tested too strongly.

Thar She Blows

My wife, our children, and I traveled to see my niece--and most of the rest of my family--today for her birthday celebration. She'll be four years old on Monday. I snapped this photograph as she was preparing to blow out the candles. If the preparation is any indication of the ensuing wind speed, her brother, who's on the opposite side of the cake, is about to be blown out of his high chair.

LAD Camp

Yesterday, my son and I came with a few other father/son groups from our church to LAD Camp at Camp McCall. It rain pretty much all day. And by rained, I mean poured. My weather proof raincoat stopped being weather proof about 5:00. The rain held off until just before 4:00 today, at which point the skies opened up and added thunder to the party. As a safety precaution, activities were moved indoors for the rest of the afternoon.

The boys were able to try a zip line and swing. This morning we descended to Little Waterfall (a trek which, along with the climb to the chapel, really should require a physical before you're allowed to try).

I'm really impressed with the efficiency of the staff. Meals are served family style so there's no waiting in line after working up an appetite. The staff is very friendly and they work with the boys very well.

Except for the rain, I'm already looking forward to next year.

My Son's First Fish

My son caught his first fish tonight. Not bad for a kid who doesn't really like the outdoors.

My family and I visited my parents and my siblings today for my nephew's first birthday party. These are some shots from the festivities. My sister and the birthday boy, my other sister and her son, and my dad and nephew, respectively.
