Happy 4th of July 2008!

What better way to spend the 4th of July than eating sweet watermelon at Grandma and Grandpa's house, so juicy the sticky juice runs right down your arms.....what fun!

We all camped out on our annual Manning camp out at Grandma and Grandpa's. The best campground around!

We camped from Thursday through Sunday and had a great time. The weather could not have been better and we ate like royalty. On Friday night we grilled two huge beef tenderloins. Steve was in charge of these and did an excellent job. He sliced it up for everyone and had medium and medium rare pieces to please everyone. The steaks were so tender and soooo good. We also feasted on baked potatoes, fruit, veggies and desserts. We spoiled ourselves the next morning with the leftover steak and potatoes. At night we sat around the campfire talking smart and enjoying the starry skies until 1:30 am. The entire weekend was so much fun but very exhausting. Olivia had a great time and slept well in our tent at night and for naps during the day. She is well prepared for our next camping trip to Governor Dodge in a couple weeks. Her favorite thing, besides showing off and flirting, is to go around with a spray bottle squirting everyone and getting a laugh. She keeps it even by spraying herself every little while too.

It takes a while to upload pictures to the blog so I will add more from our camping trip in a day or two. Thanks Grandpa and Grandma for another fun weekend!!
