Thanksgiving Camping Trip

While most of you are freezing, we decided to go camping by the beach for Thanksgiving weekend. Yes it is a little colder than usual, but it is still warm enough to be in a swimsuit and catch a wave or two. I think our favorite part was taking pictures of everyone jumping in the air (you had to be there). The kids were so excited to camp. We had lots of fun doing skits, making banana desserts (thanks to you Jen) and telling stories. I only wish we could have stayed longer. :)






Most people make snowmen out of snow. Here in Florida, we make them out of sand.

Oh how I wish I would have been there! It looks like such a fun time and being on the beach in November pretty much sounds like the most wonderful thing ever.

Those pictures are awesome. Maybe it's an illusion, but they are sure jumping high! How are you by the way, it seems like it has been a long time since we have talked!

I also am wondering how everyone jumped like that in the sand! It looks so cool!

Amy! We just got a Christmas card from your fam, and I found your blog from it! I can't believe how big Avery is and how cute your two little boys are. Anyway, just wanted to say hello--hope all is well with your fam in Florida! We are missing the warmth.

...this is Elyse Rasmussen by the way, just so you know who I am!
