Every easter weekend that we have lived in Texas, we have participated in our tri-ward Hunstville campout. The Hunstville campout started about 35 years ago with a few families, it has since expanded and has now become a tradition to many of the ward members in our area.
It is a lot of fun and our family looks forward to it every year.

S'MORES TIME!
Getting the kids too bed is always an adventure when we camp!
They just want to stay up and play... but I want my relaxing down time by the fire too!
The first night we could not find Logan.
Later, Jon found him at a nearby camp eating bullfrog legs...
He, along with other youth caught and decided to eat them.
I was pretty upset!!! I know God made creatures on earth for us to use but I don't believe the boys ate them because they were hungry. I know Logan was not the ring leader but he willingly went along.
Julien nicely snuggled up not ready to wake up.
One of my favorite things about camping is the fact that Jon does all the cooking!!!
He is a seasoned master chef when it comes to cooking in the wilderness!

Bubble time!

I love all the family time we get when we are camping.
There are lots of friends around, but we make sure to keep plenty of time with our own too!

This morning Jon made pancakes and breakfast burritos!
