Me and Ange again.
July 10th through the 12th I went camping near Springfield Oregon with my cousin's and their friends. Every year they get together for their Girls Annual Weekend where they get away and go camping with no kids and no husbands/boyfriends. Girls only!
Friday, my friend Ange and I packed up and headed for the freeway to Springfield Oregon to meet up with my cousin. We got into town right about noon. Jeannette didn't get off work until 1 o'clock so we went and got some ice for the cooler and some lunch before we headed up to the mountains for some real camping. AKA no water and no toilets!!
When we got to camp, we unloaded the car and set up the tent. We were introduced to people as they showed up. We learned how to play Flip cup (which is the best drinking game ever) and we went to the creek to cool off and hang out. We all hung out and played games by the campfire until we tuckered out and went to bed.
The next night my sister showed up and we did pretty much the same things. We all sat around playing games and enjoying having no kids around and being as loud and crazy as we wanted to be.
I made so many great new friends and I cannot wait to go back next year!
3 Days of BBQs
Fourth of July weekend. Thursday, the second, we went over to Jeremy's cousin and his wife's new house. It was his cousin's birthday so they had a get together. We had BBQ pork, corn on the cob and fresh baked cobbler. Mmmm, so yummy. Jake and Robyn recently bought their house so it was our first time there. We had a great time visiting with everyone.
Friday, the third, we went over to Jeremy's mom's house for another BBQ. Her brother, Jeremy's uncle, and his wife were in town on a business trip. We had hamburgers and hotdogs. We played a Trivial Pursuit Scene It game on DVD and Pass the Ace. We spent most of the day there hanging out and visiting.
Saturday, the fourth, we went over to my sister's house for their annual BBQ. The kids had lots of fun like they always do, playing with their cousins, running around and lighting off fireworks.
