Jackson wanted to put his feet in the "ocean"...yah.. it really is the river. Actually.. it is cool because it is the only place in the world where three rivers meet.. It is very cool. You know what else we have that is unique to Wahpeton... The WHOPPER!! It is the largest catfish in the world.. Yep.. look it up.. seriously. We have people come from all over to see it. Jackson is under the fish.. but really hard to see him... gives you an idea of how big this fish is. After our BIG trip to the ocean.. giggle giggle... we went and collected flowers.. Yep.. I think Jackson needs to be paid for getting rid of weeds. He loves to pick them and yep.. I get lots of bouquets of flowers. Then it was time for our picnic... but there are no pictures because I was trying to hold down plates, kids and me... it was windy and I was totally frustrated since Jenna would not eat.. ok.. worried and frustrated. Anyway.. got through it and Jenna and I landed in the camper for the rest of the night. She just could not be out in that weather. We got to watch everyone else running around having fun and roasting marshmellows from inside the camper... could almost TASTE those marshmellows.... almost. Oh well.. just made our own campfire pit in our yard so hope to be able to participate in some campfires yet this year. Jackson had a blast!! He even got to sleep over in the camper.. yep, his first camping trip. He did wonderful according to grandma and bumpa. He told me all about it and he did have a blast... I see a camper in our future..well at least camping "grandma style". Thanks Grandma and Bumpa for the experience for Jackson... he had a blast!!

I like how you get one dandelion! Too funny!! I love his little voice..."No, they're mine." Absolutely precious!
Which grandparents had the camper? Where was the campground? (Email me a website if you think about it!) Now that we have a camper of our own we are scouting out campgrounds all over. Maybe we can come up to the big ocean (North Dakota must have forgotten to put that on their tourism brochure) and see the Whopper!

Looks like you guys had a great time! Camping is not my thing - but it looks like fun!
I'm with mommykw, camping is definitely not my thing! But I'm glad you had fun!
