S'more Golf Please!

There really is nothing quite like going falling asleep with a belly full of s'mores, then rolling out of your tent in the morning to find yourself smack dab in the middle of a golf course! But let me tell you; when you're campin' with the Roberts, that's just the sort of treat you're in for! We went to our first Roberts Family camp-out together as Mr. & Mrs. Roberts this last June at a golf-course in Ashton, ID. Sam's sister Julie picked out this fun little spot where we all had plenty of things to choose from to keep it real! Bing & Diane brought enough Bluegrass instruments to make the Quaking Aspens sing in the breeze! Besides fishing with enough kids to make the fish swim back upstream, playing Baseball on a golf course or listening to Dan practice his dramatic role as an original Patriot- there's just one story that we can't keep to ourselves...

So, Ellie and Reagan are cousins- they're pretty much the same age and when they're together they're inseperable! Bless her heart, Reagan ran out of clean undies for the same reason that most potty-training 3 year olds do. Having to wear diapers at this point was completely devastating to her, to the point of unfailing, sobbing tears! Like many similar 3 year-old instances, this lead to a time out in a folding chair around the campfire with Mom and the Aunties... Relating to the great dispair this sort of moment can bring to a fellow 3 year old, sweet little Ellie had a plan of her own. Julie, Amy and I were just talking around the camp-fire when a tiny, tip-toeing, toe-headed blonde heads up the trail with the bottom of her shirt wadded up into a ball in her hands. Her heads pointed down to her feet, but she knows exactly where those little feet are headed- straight to the folding chair that is holding her favorite cousin captive! Of course us adults don't think much about it until a great big grin spreads across both Reagan and Ellie's faces and a ball of pretty princess underwear comes falling out from the bottom of Ellie's shirt onto Reagan's little lap... talk about a girl with a mission! Unfortunately, it wasn't a good idea for Reagan to wear her cousin's allegedly clean panties- however, it was probably the funniest little scheme I've seen in a while!
