July 4th Camping

Bri had all of last week off from work,so we spent most of the time camping at Santa Fe Lake.

We set up camp on Wednesday morning. Already the place was starting to fill up for the holiday weekend. Each day we would see campers come in,drive around looking for an empty hook up and drive away very discouraged and even angry. So glad we just tent camp and can set up just about anywhere!

We had a great spot right across from the dam where the fireworks would be on Friday night. Of course the kids made friends with some of the neighbor camping kids. The other kids shared some of their fireworks stand goodies with our boys. Among them were the snap pops that you throw down and they pop. After a while, Nathan came up to Bri and asked where his little onions were. What?

"you know, my little onions the kids gave me".

"Oh, you mean the snap pops?" Yeah, my little onions."
