Camping

For the 4th of July weekend, Nate and I went down to Duck Creek where we met my family to go camping for three days.  My family actually got there one day earlier than us, so when we arrived they had everything set up at the campsite...except our tent.  They had left that for us to experience together.  Thanks guys.  Haha.  So we set that up (and never got a picture of it) and then it was onto spending time with everyone.  We played lots of cards, made yummy meals, and passed the baby around all day.
We also did lots of ATVing, bike riding, and Shaun even did some fishing.  Unfortunately, I don't have pictures of those events either.  Sorry.  We heard there was going to be fireworks in the village on Saturday night, so we all piled in the car and headed down to see the parade and fireworks, and get some ice cream to celebrate Shaun's birthday.  The parade was actually kind of hilarious, with all of the locals dressing up and decorating their ATV and throwing candy at us.  But there was alot going on and this was the nephew's reaction, especially when a truck decided to honk when it was two feet away from him:
We then proceeded to sit and wait for fireworks for over an hour, and all we got was some that never left the ground.  We actually got up and left before they were even over because this is how the baby was watching them:
But we still had so much fun over the weekend and we can't wait to do it again!  Here are some more pictures of the rest of the family from the rest of the trip.

It was so good seeing everyone, and although I look disgusting in all of these pictures, I had so much fun! Love my family!

Oh my gosh, Jamie's baby TOTALLY looks like a Stephenson, like your little brother or something.
