We anxiously await as Grandma preps for the campfire

Days 11-13, 6/27 to 6/30, the Kinzers, Georges and Rogers head to Amboy Illinois for Caelan's first camping trip. Hopefully the first of many.
When we arrived in Chicago and my mom, Karen, Megan and the twins came to pick us up from the airport, I was asked what would I think about trying to plan a camping trip while Caelan and I were here. I couldn't have said Yeeeeesssss, fast enough. I have so many wonderful memories from our family camping trips. I was really excited to begin those memories with Caelan. So my mom worked her magic and put together an awesum trip, regardless of the Noah's ark rain predicted for the weekend we were supposed to go. We drove out to Green River Campground in Amboy Illinois. We rented 2 trailers that slept 6 people each and were surprisingly nice. Every morning we woke up and all ate breakfast together, then played around at the campground or went swimming, ate dinner together then sat around the campfire. Unfortunately Caelan never got to see the campfire because the sleepies got the best of him early each night. I ate many s'mores and pies in his honor.
We all really had a great time, had a little rain but it never dampened our parade!
