And, I'm back.

I'm back from camping, and trying to slowly get back into blogging regularly.

It took a bit longer to pack the car... and the car was a little more full than usual, but look at these happy campers! Right... at least it wasn't too long of a drive.

It was a great trip that we're fortunate enough to have my sister-in-law plan for each year. Every summer, all of my husband's family that can make it, and all of my sister-in-law's family that can make it converge upon the lake for nearly a full week of fun. I wanted to sleep through it, but I'm so glad I didn't.

Pretty much, this is just a picture heavy post showing you the beauty of where I grew up. In my next post, I'll try to put together a few tips for camping with cloth diapers.

What fun trips have you taken or planned for this summer? Any traditions you like to take part in with your family? Any gorgeous photos you'd like to share?
