The Camping

I am starting a new section because I know I will be doing this again!  I loved it and so did the kids.  The last morning there Matthew woke up and his first words were I do not want to leave.  I agreed. 
So the camping was fun.  Matthew and Abby got to eat smores!  My brother cooked hamburgers on the grill.  It was such a textbook camping trip.  They had this cult of raccoons that would come out at dusk.  They were like gangs.  It was funny because we came back from the shower and the BOY cousins were hiding in the tent.  They were hiding from the raccoons!  There were like 10 in my Sister's camp.  We laughed and laughed.  Connor my sister's son came screaming by saying that a coon was in my sister's car.  They were like that movie Gremlins.  I did my best cougar cat yelp and they would just look at me. 
We took a trip to Key West to see all the Leatherbacks, drunks riding on bikes!  We ate Key lime pie and Jaycee and I got Henna tattoos.  Mine was a Chinese symbol for Butterfly.  I was a little worried it said "stupid tourist" but I emailed a pic to someone who knows and they confirmed it said butterfly.  I really want a real one.
I apparently did not do a good job packing.  I forgot the little things like UHHH flashlight?? OK so yell at me.  I know I just figured in a campground it would be light enough---- I was wrong.  Oh and charcoal oh ya then there was the matches.  I did have coffee and a coffee pot, the most important things.  I also brought battery operated fans and ...well and a air mattress that blows up with batteries.  I think I bought out costcos D batteries.  We used gallons of sunscreen!  I also felt compelled to buy the solar shower thingy bob.  You can laugh!    ---- I let Matthew eat Rice crispy treats for breakfast.    What memories we made!

Here are the pics....
