Family Camp time! Yahoo!

Did I get your attention? Besides Pringles, what do we need for a campout? I have lots of equipment we can share, but we may also want to have duplicate things at each campground.
Things I have:
Lrge tent -- Klevens are going to use it.
Med. tent
2 2-man tents (one belongs to Jeff)
EZ UP cabana
small pop-up beach shelter tent
several large tarps to put under tents
table
lg ice chest
stove
lantern
cooking pots
lg & small griddles
rack for over the fire
lg water jug (the big orange kind)
smaller portable water jug
2 good camping mattresses (air cushioned)
1 double air camp mattress - not the one we use in the house
rake and broom
and a bunch of other small stuff: rope, flashlights, etc.
If you want to uses any of this, I'll plan to bring it. Grampa suggested I bring his big car, too.
Take it away, Campers!

Mom thanks for being so loaded with stuff! So Jeff I guess I don't need to bring my 2 man tent for you then right?
As far as equipment goes we really don't have much. We'll bring our small table. For meal stuff I don't think we need much duplicate since we'll be eating together.

Chili & Cornbread (in the dutch oven)

Wed& Thurs: Amy & Jeff
B: Pancakes
eggs and bacon
D: Tacos
Chicken & Fries (dutch oven)

Sally Your welcome to come and be there anytime! we just kept you out of the help rotation. You are already busy feeding someone!
Mom You can just relax and exercise those pinkies... and keep kids out from the kitchen.
Sound good everyone?
You will be on your own for lunches and snacks! Can't wait!!!! 1 more week!

Mom lets talk I also have alot of that so yes lets not double up I don't have extra space. I have an easy up do we want one for a kitchen and one for at he beach? We could just move it...We need the big water jug!I dont think we need a rake but a broom is great. I need to check on what air matresses I have? Grandpas car may be a real good idea! haha I have room in my huge tent for you and randa or you can take a smaller one? Kate are you using Moms tent? thats fine just need to know what to bring.

haha. sorry kate, i was on blogger at your house.. i guess it still had me signed it :)

Carrie said...

Sounds all good to us! Although, we won't be there until Wednesday night, so we won't be able to help out with lunch or dinner on Wednesday. Sorry! We'll make it up to you with our fab chef skills for Thursday :)

And yes, if Di has a tent with Jeff's name on it, then let's just plan on that, so Amy doesn't have to lug an extra tent over there.

Can't wait!

Sally said...

Getting really excited for everyone to show up! Who gets here first and when?

Amy said...

I think Kate and I will be there together we are both leaving Mon AM! hey Kate we should caravan I'll be alone w/out Dan. Always make me a bit nervous. I'll call ya ;)

Mom said...

Yes, Katie is using my big tent. I'm bringing all the ones I have, so Jeff and Carrie can use whichever one they want--or whichever will fit in the available space. They can take one of the 2-man tents home with them. I'll bring the ez-up--I want to try it out since it's never been used.

Dinners sound good--I also thought maybe baked potatoes in the fire with chili or whatever might be a good one. Oh, maybe that's kind of the same as foil dinners... I'll help wherever you need me.

Got the pins out of my fingers, but will need a Dr to take out the stitches sometime during the week. Anyone got one handy? :)

Planning to get there Monday noonish with Randa.

Friday, we can come back to my house and I'll put the tent up in the backyard...kids can sleep out there and "grups" can have beds as far as they go around. (Do you remember "grups"?)

Mom said...

AND...Sat when everyone's here, is Corn Festival Day! Let's all go get corn and Gram will pay for some rides for kids. Fun thing to celebrate Tay's and Papa's birthdays!
