Camping was a BLAST!

Well, Carey did survive the camping trip after all. She's not big on camping by the way. I think it helped that we stayed in a cabin with TV, refrigerator, ac and heat, as well as a bathroom.

Not only did Carey enjoy it, but the kids and I had alot of fun too. We got to fish, play games like horseshoes, washers, frisbee, jenga, and golf just to name a few. Carey and Taylor really enjoyed the fishing believe it of not. The first fish Taylor caught totally on her own was actually a pretty good size catfish as you will see in the pictures.

One of Taylor's favorite things to do was to go on a ride in the ranger (polaris). She just loved the wind in her hair and the bumps that we drove over. She also had a blast just playing and feeding the ducks.

I enjoyed the Bass fishing which is my favorite, and landed some pretty big ones. Carey liked fishing for catfish and caught several pretty good size ones although the really big one she had got away. She tried repeatedly to catch it again, but as I told her the big one usually always gets away. Just as the first Bass I hooked which was so big he snapped of my 12 pound test line like a toothpick. Of course, he also got away.

We hope you enjoy the pics from our Spring Break vacation.

Camping Trip

Here at the Thompson's we have a yearly tradition of going to The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. However, this year we have decided to do something different. We are going camping! I know I couldn't believe it either but Mommy actually agreed to ruff it for a while as long as I could provide her with a bathroom. I know that's not exactly ruffing it, but she will still have to shower in an outdoor tent shower stall with a hose hanging over the top. Its gonna be chilly!

The kids are really excited about it as well. Taylor just can't wait to sleep in a tent under the moon, fish, roast marshmallows by the fire, and everything else we are going to do while camping. She just keeps asking me if there is going to be any bears. I told her she need not worry.

Once we get back we will have plenty of pictures to share as well as all the fish we caught. Stay posted!
