Basswood Resort

We love to go camping at Basswood Resort. This was the first time we let both kids invite a friend to go camping with us and they all really enjoyed themselves. Michael and I had fun with our friends Willie and Lucinda who we met at Basswood a few months ago and we also had fun with our new friends Bryan and Macey.

The kids spent a lot of time riding their bikes and

swimming!

Joshua and Dylan

On Saturday we took a quick trip into Weston and saw some of the flooding from the Missouri River.

Finding a good fishing spot

Cass and Alisa went on a wagon ride

Joshua and Dylan caught a turtle and then let it go back into the pond.

Last night we had a nice little meal with our new camping friends. Michael smoked pork butt and we also had coleslaw and chips. Macey made a delicious peach dump cake in her dutch oven for dessert. What a fun time!

Joshua ended the weekend by catching a large catfish. He was so excited!

Oh, I made strawberry infused vodka last week. It was a huge hit!

Today Dylan has been busy lighting firecrackers. One of his favorite things to do is put a firecracker in a marshmallow and watch it go but this year he is wrapping it with duct tape. Who knows!!!

Of course he wears his eye and ear protection!

We are getting ready to eat our stuffed jalapenos (yes, we eat them quite often), grilled steak and mashed potatoes. We also have yummy gooey Twix cookies for dessert.
Cass and I will spend the rest of the evening watching the boys light off the fireworks. Wow, the three day weekend flew by!!!
