The Campers are now Seniors!!



Seniors 2013
The campers have returned this year and they are excited
they are SENIORS. 
This group of campers have been getting together since 9th grade . They meet monthly on each others farm and campout.ya never know whos coming till they get there and sometimes we add a new one or two for the nite. last year it seemed we saw this group on our farm several times.
So to kick off their SENIOR CAMPOUTS we were asked to be this years first host!
I love it !the planning, cooking and seeing the kids from year to year to see how they have grown and changed. This year all the chatter was about their futures and what colleges they want to attend.They are all so nice to be around. 8 more showed up after supper,the sweet ladies that join us from time to time leave around 10:45 camp rules:)




This year we have a new cook around!

he grilled the campers smoked chicken,sausage and jalapeno dogs!
I cooked up fried okra and green beans and served SWEET TEA.
