The Dynda side of the family got together this weekend for a big Labor day campout at Shady Grove. We have been planning it for a few months now and of course whenever you plan something that far in advance the weather never cooperates. Such was the case during the weekend. Who would have known that Hurricane Isaac would bring torrential rainfall our way. We didn't let that stop us though and decided to "camp" out at my parents house. With 8 kids, 6 years old and younger, we knew it would have been miserable camping in the 90 degree, rainy weather. We love camping but not that much! The kids still had a blast, we enjoyed all our camp food, and on sunday, when the weather cleared up for a bit, we headed to Shady Grove for some all day fun with a cookout over the campfire.
