Friday evening when my husband got back he asked to go camping. I was like WHAT???? He ended telling me that a few of his work buddies were gonna go camping and he wanted to go. Don't ask me how or why but I always end up giving up arguing with him because it's just so pointless.
We ended making a trip to Wal-Mart to go get some essential camping gear. The most important thing...a tent. We don't own one because we moved out of my husbands parent's house not too long ago and haven't had the time to go camping or anything so we ended up buying a 10 x 8 tent that can fit up to six people or two queen sized beds. I wanted to get a smaller one but the Wal-Mart in Ozark is pretty small so that was the only size they carried and so that's the size we bought. I think it was almost sixty dollars but I'm not sure. It's easy to set up and easy to take down so it was definitely worth the money.
Our sixty dollar tent.

We bought some other essentials like food, drinks, watermelon, snacks, and of course SMORES! Camping isn't camping if there aren't any smores so we got ourselves some graham crackers, Hershey's chocolate, and marshmallows! I was telling my husband that I knew his friends were going to forget to bring food, drinks, and of course toilet paper. Funny thing was...I was completely right. The only thing they did bring was some "drinks" a tent, and a mini grill. We still had an awesome night but I didn't get much sleep. My husbands work buddies stayed up most of the night talking, drinking, and for some weird reason swimming in the middle of the night slash early morning.
I took this picture of the river in the morning. Very pretty scenery.
SMORES and hot dog my husband made for me...YUMMY!
husband decided to go cheap and buy bread instead of normal hot dog buns..
this creepy crawly was wandering around our cars...almost stepped on it
As soon as my husbands work buddies went to bed the sky was starting to light up so my husband decided to go fishing while I slept in. I only slept an hour or two longer before I ended getting hungry and getting up. When I got up my husband was just starting to come back from giving up on fishing. He made me a couple of hot dogs and some smores and I was happy.
We ended coming home around one or two in the afternoon to take a shower and hit the road to my moms house. My mom made egg rolls! For some reason she had some really weird looking wraps that I've never seen her use before. She said the Asian store she went to had no regular egg roll wrappers so she bought the only kind that they had. It was very doughy and thick like the ones you see at Asian restaurants but ten times better tasting. I love my moms cooking! I baked a strawberry flavored cake and covered it with whipped cream and added little pink and yellow sprinkles all around. I didn't get to take a photo of it but it was tasty!
Yummy Egg Rolls!
Nothing beats a ripe, red, juicy, sweet watermelon!
Sunday my husband and I filled up two buckets consisting of water balloons. My brothers and my husband had a water balloon fight which was kind of interesting. I laughed the whole time they were playing. They had teams and free for all games. Monday we didn't do much though. My husband had to leave me at my moms house so I could go work out some stuff with our insurance company while he went home so he could work the next day.
