First (and hopefully annual!) Roomie Camping Trip

It seems that we are gluttons for punishment as we decided (back in April when summer was just a glimmer in the future) that camping at 10,600 feet in late August would be a great idea, especially with kids! Turns out we were right based on the memories we made, but VERY wrong based on the weather we endured, which pretty much covered all 4 seasons within each 24 hour period. But all in all, the weekend was a blast and we'll definitely do it again next year (in July, at a lower elevation!)

Brogan and Kaitlyn enjoy a romantic dinner for 2

Are they playing a game, or is Maddie running for her life from a scary monster?!?!?

"hiking" with the toddlers and Brogan

Sweet friends - Maddie and Grace

The big kids roasted marshmallows at 10:30 am!

Joshua, Maddie, and Grace

Story time with Carrie - I think Christine is more engrossed than the kids!

All 6 kids in varying stages of contentment - Brogan, Madeline, Kaitlyn, Josh, Grace, and Nora

Brogan's happy face would never tell that Daddy had to take him for a drive at 2:30 a.m. to settle him down the night before!

Nora and Phil - this little 10 week old was probably the best kid camper of all!
