LeBaron Camping Adventure

 6 of 8 LeBaron siblings made it up for a night in the mountains! We booked later than we should have so could only find a group site way up Hobble Creek Canyon — it was such a long drive and then not very cool up there being so far south and not high in the mountain. But you know what? We had a fantastic time (for camping anyway! I am not the biggest camping fan —mostly because it's so much work to just bring all the gear and then the sleeping is nonexistent...but the kiddos love it and get filthy and we soak up dirt and campfires and exploring and cousins so it all balances out :)

Luke was our sleeping buddy most of the night :|


Cutest group of 9 year old girls! Tommy's hammock ended up being the hit of the campout. Every kid loved hanging out in it and we are thoroughly convinced that we'll need at least one on every campout in the future!
 
The cousins! Finn, Addy and Leo were already back to bed for naps and Anders was still asleep. But holy smokes that's a huge crew of kids!

The breakfast crew —bacon, pancakes and fruit never tasted so good!


Off on an adventurous hike. This trail was so overgrown and sketchy that it was kind of scary! But we just kept trudging on hoping to find something at the end...and...we never did! Oops. Kind of a bust but the kids did great and kept together and grew their little hiking leg muscles :)



These faces are the best. 
I seriously love my LeBaron family and how they are always up for family fun!
