Oh, the wonderful things my Daddy can do...
He can write a computer program like nobody's business.
He can make a mean pancake.
He can add a powerful drumline to our church band every week.
And, this weekend, I got to see firsthand what else my Daddy can do.
He can camp!
A while back, on a whim, Mommy signed us all up to go camping with our playgroup friends. Then she remembered that she's not very good at camping. (Daddy says I have to tell you now that "camping" is a loose term when the cabin is AC'ed and there are working toilets down the road a bit...)
So, Daddy, being the Super Camper that he is, got us all packed up and we headed to Lake Bastrop for the weekend.
Man, was it fun! We had so much more fun than any of us imagined. We got to ride in Jackson's boat, go on a nature walk, play with my friends in the "front yard", wade in the lake, tube on the boat and bike ride. We also all had a big dinner together on Saturday night and I found a porch and some music and danced the night away. There really isn't a situation where dancing is out of place.
Daddy also got to do a bunch of cooking outdoors and skiing. Mommy got to appreciate the expertise of Daddy, and Kate got to be outdoors all weekend. Kate loves being outside, so even though she was just along for the trip, she still had a great time. Except on the boat. When she had to scream. Both times.
All in all, though, the trip was a huge success and everyone (even Mommy) agreed we should do it again next year!

I loved the camp-out pictures. Far cry from the dress up princess. Your Nana enjoyed camping out when she was little, but didn't like the bugs.
