Last weekend we went camping with our friends, the Petersens, and we had SUCH a BLAST! We like camping, but camping in Alaska is different. There are bears. EVERYWHERE. And I'm not cool with sleeping in a micro-thin tent and calling that shelter with bears as my neighbors. But the Petersens have a small RV that we slept in. It was the best of both world- campfires, s'mores, hiking and hotdogs, and a mattress at night. We had a great time. And Smith did awesome.
Smith and I waiting while Dad packs.
Pretty sure the reason he liked camping was because it meant that with Mom and Shasta both there, he never got put down!
Too happy to go to sleep....
Finally ready for a late bedtime.

Derek kayaking.
For about 20 minutes, because Joshua fell into this freezing glacier fed lake!! So cold.

Fun! We just took Lexi camping, and she had the same problem sleeping- too much to see and do! Smith sure is a cutie!
Sounds like Smith was a happy camper for you. I am glad you got to do something fun as a family.
Belinda and I went camping this summer in Memphis, but it was sooo hot. Everytime I realize you are in Alaska I think how much I'd like to go there one day. It's weird to say, but we have been missing Rexburg a lot lately, and having all of our cousins around. Anyway. Keep up the posts!
