We usually go to Huntsville State Park with these friends but tried something new. Pedernales was very different. The individual sites were very private. The rocks and falls were beautiful and it was hilly. Huntsville is better for a big group because it's quite open and you can call gather easily for games and fires. But we had a lovely time and made some memories. Oh wait, except for the last day when I totally melted down. This will be addressed in another post.
Brandi and I made cinnamon roll dough and froze it before the campout. Then we let them rise overnight and cooked them over the fire in a dutch oven. They worked pretty well but next time we will cook them out of the firepit and only using coals. They got a little burned. But they were good and it was fun to try something new. I was really committed on this trip to having lots of interesting and fun camping foods. Crescent Roll dough in a sandwich cooker with cinnamon was a big hit. I also made a chocolate cake with whipping cream and it was simple and really good.
The boys! And check out the background!!
That's Isaac swinging on the rope swing in the freezing river water! Brrrr
The kids played Capture the Flag, Flag Football, Zombie Tag, Kiss Marry Kill and lots of cards and Bananagrams
