Well folks, I know we aren't winning any awards for most up to date bloggers as of late. I gotta tell you guys it was much easier to blog out in Russia than back here in America. Today's post is about our other camping trip with our nephews up to a lake. We had a ton of fun. Of course they tried to kill fish (without succeeding) and we hiked around our campsite for a little while.

 WE HAD SO MUCH FUN WATCHING THIS FROG SWIM. THEY MOVE THEIR LEGS SO GRACEFULLY YET SO FUNNY ALSO.

OKAY... I KNOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE AND WELL... OKAY WE WERE MAKING THE LAKE A LITTLE WARMER. IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. IT WAS A DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO ATTRACT FISH.

Unfourtunatey we had to bail early because the wild fires were totally out of control. The air was really smokey and you couldn't see the sky really well. We climbed up on the top of one hill to look, and it seemed as though the fire was coming our way. So we did the wise thing and took off and found a local camp site to stay in the next night and cooked mac and cheese. Monty (golden retreiver) stole the hot dogs right off my stick. I just turned around and they were gone. We had a great time with the boys.
