Last weekend we suprised the girls with a camping trip to Yogi Bear's Jellystone campground. Jellystone is a great camping place for kids with a water park, pool, bounce pillow, movies, miniture golf and lots more. We met some friends, the Goldstien family up there who were camping right across from us.
Friday David took the day off so that he and the girls could get there a little earlier then usual. They started off with the bounce pillow then on to the pool and water park. The water park was really cool, there were I think 3 sets of water slides and a great big Pick-a-nic (those of you that have seen the Yogi cartoons will know how to pronounce it correctly) that filled up with water and about every 10 minutes there would be a wistle what would sound to let the kids know it was about to dump. All the kids (and adults) around would gather underneath and wait to get dumped on. Man does it dump on you.
Saturday morning we have a very sweet Breakfast of Cinnamon rolls from the Ice Cream shoppe, they were sure sweet.
After loading up on the sugar we went back to get ready to go swimming. I thought it would be fun to introduce Jenna to the pool but she had other ideas, ideas of sleep. So we put Jenna in her stroller for a little nap while the girls swam and had water balloon fights.
After swimming we started to head back to the tramper (for those of you who don't know that is Becca's name for the trailer, combination of trailer and camper) for a little r & r and some lunch but had to stop at the bounce pillow first (the little boy in the orange shorts and blue shirt is Max Goldstein in a few of the pictures). Becca and I wanted to go back to the pool so we left David and Kayla behind and went swimming with Jenna joining us again but this time she didn't take a nap.
Saturday night we had a yummy steak dinner then joined the Goldstiens by their campfire for some s'mores and some fun. Late Saturday night as usual we were greeted by a rain storm but luckily we were nice and dry in the tramper.
Sunday morning after breakfast we wanted to go back to the pool but thought it would be best to get the trailer ready for the road first. I thought it would be fun to give Jenna another try in the pool and this time she really liked it, we played in the pool while David, Kayla and Becca played basketball with the Goldsteins. We hated to get out of the pool but it was time to finish loading up and heading home.

David, your girls are all getting so big! Kayla is such a little lady, Becca is a peach and Jenna is a dollie!
Your wife is no slouch either, you are a lucky man!
Love you,
