Fairytale Weekend

So this weekend was the first official weekend of summer vacation for Gabi and we made it extra special by planning our first camping trip of the season.  Gabi brought along her friend, Brooke, for Fairytale Weekend at Jellystone in Fremont.  Our favorite campground.  We met up with Chad, Amber and the girls this weekend which always makes it more fun.  We did alot of relaxing, alot of walking, some swimming, some Bingo (Ben actually won $6.50), some ceramics and of course the Fairytale Ball was Saturday night.  We also coordinated dinner with Chad before the dance, and wow.  A great meal.  Amber made a chicken packet in foil with some fixins and I was in charge of the sides and a dessert.  We opted for some fresh veggies grilled on a skewer, some potato salad (from Walmart) and a dessert you can never go wrong with...some Rice Krispie Treats.  We were pleasantly surprised at how all the food came together.  A nice change of pace and always like to try something new.  Campfire time was fun.  Lots of laughs.  So very glad to have started this summer out right and how refreshing it was to get back into the camping season.  Always a sad day on Sunday when it is time to pick up and head home.  Friend time and Cousin Time...Great times!
