You STINK at praying :)

I asked all of you to pray for me on Monday as I was taking the family camping for the first time.  Either you prayed wrong or you just stink at praying!!! :)  We got there Tuesday and it started raining and it stopped last night about 3 in the morning.  When I say rain, I mean it down poured.  I thought we were in a drought but I think it is over!!!!

Here are my thoughts on camping:

• I actually really liked it.
• I hate Tadd. :)  He had no faith in my camping skills
• It rained non-stop!!!!
• Lake water sucks!  Why would people want to get that stuff to swim?
• Did I mention it rained?
• I couldn’t get a fire started.
• Have you ever heard of ribs with cherry Jell-O rubbed on them before you grilled them?  I hadn’t either.
• If you are Independent Baptist that is totally cool.  BUT why would you go camping if your wife and daughters have to wear denim skirts to your ankles the whole time?
• Also how come your wife and daughters have to “cover up” in long sleeve shirts and skirts but your son and you can run around in nothing but swim trunks?
• A raccoon  got in our cooler at night and ate our watermelon, cheese, and eggs.  He then closed the cooler.  Stupid but smart raccoon.
• I couldn’t cook on the grill because I couldn’t get the fire going.
• Thank God for an air mattress.
• Not into the whole community shower thing.
• Not into the TP in the bathrooms either.
• Loved hearing the crickets at night.
• Loved sitting around with no computer
• Loved seeing my kids have a blast!!!
• Loved climbing rocks with them.
• Loved the darkness at night.
• I’m glad to be home, but we will be doing it again soon, I think.
