Family Camping 2009

We have finally reached our vacation portion of the summer! Before all the real traveling begins, we escaped up to the mountains for a relaxing 3 days of camping with NO HEAT. There were about 60 of us crazy Lindbloms up there "roughing it" this year. If you were to drive by our campsite you would definitely get a good laugh out of our bright yellow port-a-potties, 10 parked suburbans, 20 pitched tents, 4 pregnant women and 30 + mangy dirty wild kids running around. We are the true meaning of REAL camping... only we eat and snack like kings all the day long!
























My favorite saying of the trip:

Mom- (on the drive up) is this the road we are suppose to turn on?
Craig- ya, I remember that puddle from last year.

I love this family tradition and we look forward to it every summer!

Aww, I miss those campouts. My side of the Lindbloms never did anything as cool. I remember learning how to drive with your dad's truck and one of your cousins saying, "Wo wo wo bumpy!" and shooting a 22 pistol at trash on the side of a hill and listening to KC and Jo Jo over and over in the tent while it was raining. Good times. Awesome pictures!

Please can you at least push your belly out so that the rest of us, who aren't prego, can feel normal size.
Camping is too fun...I bet Lane loved it!

hahahaha thank you for your favorite saying of the trip.....I probably would have peed my pants in the car!
And ya I knew there would be comments on here about your belly because I was thinking the same thing. Have you got him measured lately? I think you need to feed him more! haha
Love you guys and miss you tons!

So I totally wish I could be a Lindblom! Seriously... even though the year i went with you guys everyone had that horrible stomach flu I would totally go again! Too bad my side of the family never does anything fun... AT ALL!!! Oh and I totally am on board with Jenni... push that belly out... I swear I have more of a belly then you and Delilah was born 4 months ago!

Craig is hilarious! That is awesome!! So excited to see you and Lane tomorrow. I wish our family would go on a camping trip... we used to. Maybe when I am in charge of the family reunion that's what we will do :)

I loved family camping with you guys!! Games, good food, what else do you need? You're not supposed to look that good for as far along as you are. What's your secret:) Are you a runner now?

Adam and Jess said...

P.s. I can't remember if I already told you, but we're visiting Aug 12-26 and I'd love to see you guys. Maybe we could get together for some fun in the sun.
