I love Camping!!!

Well, it seems Cooper is his father's son, he loves camping!!!  It has always been the running joke between Jeff and Shannon about what the definition of camping really is... Shannon thinks a hotel with a hot shower and running water is the way to go, while Jeff, the outdoor boy, loves roughing it in the woods.  This last weekend, we took to the road and made the 10 hour drive to Bend, OR to meet Shannon's family for a long weekend of camping along the Metolious River.

All loaded up and ready to hit the road...so happy about it.
 
Getting our sweet boy all bundled up for the chilly Oregon weather.

Such a happy boy, he loved waling along the river in his stroller.

Payton made the trip too, she loved playing in the 40 degree water.

Just loved this cute face.

Dad talking to Cooper about the joys of the outdoors.

That is one good looking guy!

OMG!! The exersaucer can go OUTSIDE!!

Mommy even managed to steal her boy away for a few loves.

Mamaw's friend Nancy even joined us for the camping trip, Coop loved meeting her for the first time.

Aunt Brittany surprised us and showed up for the weekend too; she couldn't resist some Auntie time.

Coop was enamored by his aunt.
 

and her long hair...great for pulling.


Coop loves his Mamaw!

We headed down to the Head of the Metolious for some family pics.






Coop got so tuckered out he fell asleep on Gramps..we think Gramps was just fine with this.


 

One last family pic before we head out. 

 
Well that was a great trip, but I am pooped..
