~~~~~~OFF TO CAMP~~~~~~~~~

Elaine and Anna went off to camp this summer...it was Anna's first time.

I felt yucky when we dropped them off

(Zoe does not like to ride in the car...) so no pics from that day.

Wes took off Friday and we headed back up to Wisconsin to pick up the girls, but

not before doing a little shopping!

We got the cutest LITTLE SISTER shirt at the outlet mall.

(it matches Amelia's BIG SISTER t-shirt that she has)

We ate Dippin Dots at the mall and Potbelly for lunch...yum...veggie sub :)

We also hit Cabela's. The girls love to climb around

in their tents and camping section.

They had an Africa Display too.

Here is the baby belly...32 weeks :)

We stayed at a little dive of a motel...ok for just one night. It was very old and reminded me of the hotels I stayed at when I was a kid visiting the Wisconsin Dells each year with my Grandparents.

Checkout the lovely panelling in our Motel room :)

Another of my family's traditions from when I was a kid....

We always took a picture of one of the kids in the trunk of the car.
