camping!

well, when august comes along, it means one thing...mcf's annual camping trip! Julian and i werent ablet o go last year as i was 9 months pregnant, but we were quite excited to get out this year. we packed up much more than we needed, and yet still not enough?! and headed out to mcgregor point provincial park! we were some of the first to arrive so we spent about an hour setting up and then just sat back and waited for everyone else to come. unfortunatley, it rained ALL weekend...so that put a damper (literally) on our plans , we were stuck sitting under a leaking tarp all huddled by are barely-there fire trying to stay warm. At about 5 30 on saturday evening, we decided it just wasnt worth allistair getting sick over so we packed up as fast as we could (we were dripping wet by the end of it!) and decided to head back home a day early. it was a fun weekend dispite the rain but hopefully allistairs 2nd time camping will be a bit better than his 1st! we came home with wet clothes, muddy tents and lots of laundry but we also came home with great memories! heres a few pics.
