Camping @ Palisade lake!!

Below is what the boys left us to do on our own....and we conquered!!! The boys pretty much parked the truck, grabbed their golf clubs and ran to make their tee time. Mindy, Makaylee and I being the super awesome people that we are, were able to set our tents up all by ourselves!! That is huge considering she is 6 months pregnant and I pulled my tent out of its box up there!! Us girls even got the charcoal all fired up for dinner. We are awesome!!

The newly weds went out on the canoe. Luckily we were able to rent a canoe, cause after packing our truck (for only two couples), we found out there was no room for the canoe we planned on hauling up there.

The boys getting ready to go on yet another fishing trip on the lake.

I wanted to get a picture of us in the canoe......and looking back i should have thought longer about wanting a picture on the last day of camping with no shower!! yikes!



Brian and Makaylee and in the background is Matt and Kaycie.





Everybody in the canoe except for myself, Makaylee and the preggo (Mindy). Even though this picture makes it look easy to pull a floating chair around a lake, the ones rowing will tell you otherwise, but they couldn't let go cause Matt is a horrible swimmer!!



Kaycie made a hammock for Christmas one year and decided to give it a try up camping. Luckily her and Matt had a good time in it cause Makaylee sure didn't! j/k she had a good time in it when she was by herself.

Jon loves fishing!! He even fishes where on the dock it specifically says "NO FISHING", but apparently it's okay if you step down a foot into the canoe that is tied up to the dock!!!
