woo, what a great holiday weekend!

Yanno, I have been trying to get here all day to blog about my awesome weekend, but my boss won’t stop hovering around my desk trying to converse with me about things I just don’t care about.  How rude.

So, the weekend camping trip was an effing blast as predicted.  I left work at 12:30 and picked up the kidlet.  We went to the bank, the “spirits” store and the dollar store to pick up a few last minute things then headed home.  We put the remainder of our camping stuff in the RV and headed out to pick up MOK at his house.

It took us less than an hour to get to the campground.  Traffic wasn’t bad at all, thank goodness.  When we arrived, Scott & Jackie were already there setting up “Camp Gehris”.  They tent and have an awesome set up.  Princess Dorkita likes her way of camping, drive into site, plug in plug and camp   HA HA HA!  RVing is just better for the kidlet’s asthma.  And, it’s better for my back, so there.

Jacks and I had to run out to the local grocery store for a few items and the kidlet and MOK hung out at camp with Jacks’ hubby, Scott.  I am pretty sure they chilled in the RV playing playstation (yeah, we took playstation camping, so what???  ha ha ha) until I got back.  On our grocery store adventure, I spotted the Trojan Condom bus (hey, while you’re there, click for a free sample!) driving on Route 78, pretty effing hilarious.  I wish I would’ve been able to snap a picture of it.

We got back to camp and Jacks’ brother and his wife had gotten there and were set up right behind Camp Gehris (I was across the street from Camp Gehris).  I went to the RV and made the boys some sammiches and then we wandered over to the fire ring and all sat around it and chilled out and then crashed a little early.

Saturday morning we were up earlier than I thought we’d be and had some breakfast.  We eventually wandered out to Camp Gehris and chilled.  At some point, Jacks and I wandered down to the showers and cleaned up.  And then it was back to chilling.  Jacks, Brittany, Shelby (those girls are awesome – Brittany is Scott’s sister’s daughter and Shelby is a cousin of Scott and Brittany) and Jacks’ brother and his family headed out to hike at Hawk Mountain while Scott and the kidlet, MOK and I stayed back to chill out.  Scott was cooking chili and I had some kabobs to make for dinner. 

It was during this time, while taking my doggus for a walk, that I met Becca (insert Psycho music here).  I was just walking along, minding my own business when she approached me and asked if she could pet Rudy.

 From then on, she followed me around and I couldn’t get rid of her.  She kept coming to Camp Gehris and asking if the boys wanted to play and they just wanted to do their own thing.  Then she kept bugging Brittany and Shelby to hang out.  It was crazy.  At one point, Jacks finally told her we were all just chilling and spending time together and she went away for a little while.  She was stalking us, big time.  Eek.

Later on that night around the campfire we were all trying to figure out what the heck “Dutcho” was and decided it was some crazy form of bingo.  We laughed a lot about it.  Then we made smores and eventually we all headed to bed.

Sunday, some of Jacks’ friends stopped by to visit and we took the kids to the pool.  They all swam in the frigid water for about 11 minutes, ha ha ha.  Then we headed back to camp to get ready to make some dinner.  We hung out and ate dinner and made a fire and made smores.  We tried something new with a slice of banana on them, ok, yum!  Awesome!

When it was time to leave Monday, we were all bummed out!  But, we packed up and decided we needed to plan the next adventure soon!  I took lots of pictures of course.  There were lots of laughs and a ton of memories made this weekend.

Oooh, on the way home, we stopped at Cabela’s since it was so close by the campground.  That was something else, let me tell ya.  The boys were ooohing and ahhhing over all the different types of animals on display.  It was crazy!  I have pictures I took there on my flickr, you can click on the side bar over there —–> if ya wanna check’em out

I cannot wait for our next adventure, woo!

So, how was your weekend?
