Now to this weekend, it was great!! We went up to Logan Friday after Tony got home from work, and met up with my parents at Travel land. This was their first time recreating (as they have to call it now, it's no longer camping at this point) with their new conquest moterhome! We were more than willing to help them test it out for the first time. It's so so soooo much bigger than there other little trailer, we can all sit and walk around comfortably! There's also lots of beds! The queen in the back two bunks across from the bathroom, the dinette turns into a bed, the couch has a hida-bed and then Tony and I slept above the cab, it's huge up there!! Saturday after breakfast we went to Gossners, then stopped by the movie theater and got tickets for the 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock shows for Harry Potter, tony and I went to the first while my parents watched Elizabeth, then we switched. It was really good, we all loved it! It's such an awesome movie! We each stopped by pepperage farm while the other was at the movie too, then we all went to Aggie Ice Cream, yummy!! Then everyone but my dad, went to Joann's where we finally found fabric for Elizabeth's first birthday dress, that my mom is sewing, it's going to be soooo adorable!! My Aunt Julie joined us Sat. night and even with 5 adults and a busy very mobile 10 month old, we still didn't feel cramped at all! Even with a pack and play up in front of the cab area. I'm just so glad Elizabeth does fine sleeping anywhere! In a random hotel, in a tent or in a trailer it's all the same to her! We had a really great weekend, and my parents new toy is just great!! And nobody deserves it more than they do!! We've camped years and years in rain, snow, wind and heat, with a tent we hoped would still be there in the morning, huddled in the middle so we wouldn't touch the sides and cause a lake to form around us. Bathed in the middle of the tent with a lawn chair, and a yellow bucket with water warmed on the little propane stove by my dad. And was even grateful to find an even half decent pit toilet, as it was better than a bush, for me at least! If only I had those wonderful pictures of old beaten up cars(usually by us) with lots of crap piled on the top held on by a old tattered blue tarp, and ropes, and filled to the gills with all our camping stuff, it put hillbillies to shame. Our "base camp" all set up in such a way that many a times my parents were mistaken for the camp hosts! So I say again no one deserves this wonderful new RV more than my parents! I for one am grateful for the amazingly nice tent, and camp stuff Tony and I have, and have full intentions of giving our children the same great appreciation for, a soft bed, flushing toilet, shower, and any hard sides at all!!
Here are some fun pics we took, hope you enjoy them!
