We had a great time hanging out together. We played "spotlight on" around the camp fire the first night. We all told a few things about ourselves, like what our favorite color is, age, what we like most about ourselves and our most embarrassing moment. It was pretty hilarious and I think we learned a few things about each other.
It was nice to hang out with the kids and also let them hang out with eachother.
The first day, we went for a long hike. To where, we weren't really sure at first, but then we got word of a swimming hole with a rope swing.
So we hiked........
and hiked.........
and stopped and took pictures.....
and hiked some more.....
and hiked even more.......
and we finally got to our destination.
After we assessed the situation........
........boy did we have a good time!
Even the Dad's couldn't resist the rope swing.
After all the fun, we hiked on out of there. I think we all agreed that it was well worth the hike in.
The next day, we hung out on the beach. It was a beautiful day. The dolphins were out playing and the kids had a great time playing in the waves......despite all the shark stories.....Perry......Doug!
The Hickey's voted Blake Minett "Camper of the Week." He had the best "most embarrassing moment" around the camp fire the first night. He had us all rolling till our tummies hurt.
I think next year we decided on river rafting, right? Who's in?
Love, Lisa
p.s. Special thanks to Linda Minett for taking some of these pictures. ; )
