The Osgood Annual Camping Trip

We spent last weekend at the Blind Sucker Flooding with Great Grandma Jennie & Grandpa Steve Osgood, Grandma Mary & Grandpa Scott, Melissa, Jack, Emma, Hannah, and Emily (and some other cousins and aunts and uncles too - too many to list). The girls had a really good time playing outside and being spoiled rotten by all the relatives. And Grandpa Scott found us an old pop-up camper that our car can pull, so Abby spent the weekend reveling in her camper, which could have been the Taj Mahal with as wonderful as she thought it was. Steve and I weren't as impressed (don't get me wrong, we both like it a lot), but with a little work it should be lots of fun for the next few years. We had some minor mishaps like forgetting to put the back jacks down so that it flipped up when everyone was checking out the back bunk (neither Steve nor I were in the camper for that trick. The top also dropped once without being triggered. It didn't fall all the way down and with some supports it's now totally safe. And then there was the incident where the tire fell off on the dirt road on our way home. Luckily we were only 4 miles from the campground and no one had left to go fishing yet so we were able to get some help putting the tire back on and getting home.

Both girls got to catch a fish - they were very small, but the girls still had fun. And we had lots and lots of blueberry pancakes and smores. Yummy!
