Columbia camping





The first weekend of May we went camping with some good friends and had quite an adventurous weekend. What began with a 40% chance of rain ended up being a 100% downpour when we got there. Bryan and I were putting up the tent in the rain while the kids played in the puddles and our tent broke. Now we were soaked and had a dripping, half raised tent. When the Duecks got there we went to dinner at Applebees to figure out the plan. We all decided that Avery and Cole would sleep in their trailer (with their 3 kids also) and Bryan and I would sleep in the car with Q, although the Duecks had offered to have all of us in there. The next day it sprinkled most of the day, lightened up in the afternoon. We went into town to the annual Fire Muster weekend. Cole was in a contest rolling up a fire hose and he was amazing. If you see in one of the pictures the fire men are pointing at him. A lady standing near me mumbled to me (not knowing he was mine), "He's done that before." Nope, just once. I had to put another little guy up just to see the other hoses. Each kiddo got a ribbon and each was equally proud. I town we also bowled and hand dipped our own candles.
