Father's Day

Chandler's been wanting a pocket knife, so I got him one and said it was from the baby. We've been calling him or her "Jelly Bean". We took it camping with us this weekend. It came in handy a couple of times. The campout wasn't too bad. Because of all the rain last week, all the trails were muddy and we were goaded into going on a hike anyway. We had to turn back early and sit out some later hikes because it was just too much for me. Chandler hates camping for two days. This trip falls near the bottom of our list of good trips. It rained, it was muddy, our firewood wouldn't cooperate and the fires we had, which are my favorite part, were disappointing. As was the food, considering most of it was supposed to be cooked over the fire. I'm just glad I've passed the stage of feeling sick and completely exhausted so I could enjoy the enjoyable parts of the trip.
