4th of July, Family and Fun

We had such a great week camping in Florence at Honeyman! We got over there on Wed afternoon and Ashlyn hit the ground running. She really pushed her boundaries this year. There were many trips to the park with her cousins, she ate lots of marshmallows, we walked in the parade, we stayed up late, it was pretty awesome! One of my cousins counted 161 family members. Yep, 161! Crazy, I know. All of my mom's brothers and sisters were there and almost all of my cousins. We went to the lake a couple of times, I even swam out to the dock. Jered tells me its a yearly tradition to do it at least once. We celebrated two anniversaries at the coast. My Aunt Gwenda and Uncle Louie: 57 years! and my Auntie Andi and Uncle Rick: 35 years!!

So I was a total loser and forgot my camera this camping trip. Most of these pics were taken with my cell phone or I stole them off Facebook so I don't have as many as I'd like:

 I found this one on Jered's phone.

This is just a small portion of Grandma and Grandpa Lenhardt's yard.

I'm constantly talking about it and now you can see it. Next time

I'll take a picture of the garden. This is where we get all the yummy 

vegetables and fruits, baked goods etc and all of our flower baskets.

It was HOT but we had a great time!

 Packed and ready for camping! We didn't forget anything!!

I couldn't get both of them to look at the same time!
