Where We’ve Been and Where We’re At

August 5, 2007 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Family Fun, Minnesota Me 9 Comments

Call me crazy and I’d agree.

We’d no sooner returned from a 5-day trip to North Dakota then we packed back up and all went camping.

Seven couples.

31 kids.

A little rain and a lot of fun.

This is where we’ve been, then.


And this is where we’re at.



See you tomorrow! I hope your weekend was every bit as fun and familial.

    Oh, I had to laugh when I got to the last picture, that lotion is my favorite “flavor”!!!

    Glad you had fun despite the rain. Hope you got more than we did, we did not get much, just drizzles here!

    Sounds great. I am not the camping type, but looking at your pictures reminded me of years and years ago when I was kid and was the camping type. I don’t remember the day I outgrew the joy of it and focused excessively on the dirtiness of it, but here I am. I should try to get over that. I know the boys would love the sort of weekend you describe. Welcome home.

    Crazy lady…didn’t I warn the world about camping a few weeks ago? But I appreciate the photo with the clean counter and the bath products. Nothing makes you appreciate home more than being deprived of it.

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
