I think I have turned into a "snobby" camper.  Expecting a certain standard the minute I drive on to the grounds.   I quickly put into my place, knocked down a notch, off of my high horse. This was probably one of the BEST camping weekends we have ever had as a family.   Across from our campsite were mini horses, a month old calf and her mom, turkeys and more...the kids were in their glory with all the outdoor fun... gezz no one seemed to miss the Ipads, TVs or computers one bit!   Isn't it beautiful!

A Golden Birthday

Happy Birthday to our youngest who turns 5 today!  On the fifth month on the fifth day!  It's a trifecta! Some call this the Golden Birthday!   We celebrated over the weekend both days!  Saturday with family and Sunday with her friends. We had a great time, despite some liquid sunshine.  I hope you celebrate something fun this week!  Until next time - be blessed! This post may contain affiliate or sponsor links.
