Camping Trip: Select photos

Last weekend was the Jacob family campout. It was awesome, except for the mosquitos... I've never seen mosquitos so thick! I didn't get a single bug bite the whole time we were there, luckily, because we were all being very meticulous with bug spray. These are just a few pictures that I took during said campout that I'm pretty proud of. I really need my own camera... I'm crossing my fingers for my birthday! It's only a month and a half away, right? Haha. Enjoy the pretty pictures.


Emma and a waterbottle.


A spray bottle. It was full of Listerine to keep the mosquitos away. It actually works very well, and smells tons better than bug spray.


A dandelion blowing in the wind. Like that one song...... haha.


Emma and I played Uno for a little bit.


A "red elephant" flower that I wrapped around the awning rope on Grandma Jo's tent.


Shannon making Maori rhythm sticks.


Julia and Grandpa Craig wearing pink.


Pretty lichen on a rock. The big splotch in front looks like Africa...
Some pretty purple flowers. They're about an inch across.


A road closed sign. Obviously.


I'm not sure what flower this is, but it looks cool.


Same here.


Emma, mom, Jules, and Bridget (and Toby) on our walk.


The Michael Jackson stump: Black and White.


This tiny flower was about half an inch across. Beautiful.


Some plants growing on the side of a stream. If you were a few inches tall and were standing in the stream, this is what you would see.


Bluebells. There were "purplebells" too, but I didn't get a picture of those. Should have, though.


A dandelion. It's odd, when they're in your yard, they're weeds. When they're in the wilderness, they're just another wildflower.


The red elephant flowers again. These are really cool.


A field of wildflowers. Pretty pretty.

BEST MOVIE EVER!


Well worth the wait. I'm not going to spoil it for anyone, but it was definitely the best Harry Potter movie yet. And I plan on seeing it at least a few more times. Hooray for nerd-dom!
