Minnesota camping!

Had a great time camping in Minnesota with our extended family.  Despite two nights of heavy rains, we were mostly dry in our tents.  We swam and caught sunfish, played games, learned about bats, and rode bikes.  It was a great camping experience!

This was Ben's first fish and it was so fun for Uncle Bret to share his love of fishing with another young convert.  Below, all-important nap-time!

We enjoyed holding our baby cousin, and had to share and take turns...  :-)

 

 A peaceful moment considering what to write in the journal!

 Tents that kept us dry during the storms!  Yay!

The tents held out despite the thunderstorms.  Above, the loaded down Jetta, which still managed to get about 30 mpg.  We filled every nook and cranny with some kind of camping gear!  Here we are heading home after four days of camping.
