Our ward had a camp out this weekend and it was so refreshing to get out and enjoy the beauty that Long Island has to offer. It was great and Leah handled it pretty well. Many of our ward members hadn't been camping before so it was fun to be able to experience it with them- I'm pretty sure everyone really liked it.
The two in the back are Kelly and Cardon Webb- the couple that lives under us and the one on the right is Jose Lariego.
I love this picture of Leah sporting her camping wear- she actually had a pretty bad face plant right after this, the ground was a little unsteady for her.
This was on the "hike" or walk to the beach- very beautiful!
The beach was along the coast of the Long Island Sound so the water was very calm. Leah walked right in and stayed in for about an hour! Our friends even watched her so that Doug and I could go for a swim together! A lot of people thought it was funny to see a pregnant lady swim; I was loving it.
Along the coast of Long Island. Looks almost tropic huh?
Leah woke up in a great mood. She screamed to hear her voice echo out of the tent window- I don't think others woke up as happy as her. This hat's a little too big but she really liked it.

Wow, so fun!!! I love camping! I wish our ward would do something like that. Or maybe we'll just go ourselves...you've inspired me.
I am so glad you enjoy our secret to cheap entertainment; camping. Your Leah isnt a baby anymore. You look great!
Looks like a welcome respite from the day to day grind. What a blast.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH......
Spencer keeps telling me he wants to go camping. He must have loved the Cedar City trip with you guys. Sidenote - we have that same firetruck. Ours was given to us by a neighbor kid - it's way old. Was yours a handme down too? So funny that I even noticed. Maybe it's because I just picked it up off the floor 10 minutes ago. Love the hat Leah!!
That looks like so much fun! And beautiful too, the beach looks awesome! Our family is WAY excited to see you guys this weekend in Colorado! PARTAY!!!
Looks like fun...Who knew long island could sport such fantastic scenery? Not me, that's for sure. Do people surf there?
Leah is so adorable!!! It looks like you had a blast!
your little girl is adorable! So can I save her for Cooper? Would you ever allow that? Also, how far along are you???
Oh!!I am excited for the days when Benton and I can go camping on weekends, or do anything on weekends for that matter. Looks like you guys had a blast! Leah keeps getting cuter and cuter, I can't believe how big she is.
Hey Amber, Leah is so cute! I'm on my last week and it's a hard one. I sure you are looking super cute with your little belly.
I don't think I've looked more bald. I promise it's just bad lighting.:)
Amber! I'm so glad you found me! I have been wondering what you're up to! Thats awesome that you live in Queens...my cousin's family just moved from there! Can we come stay with you next summer? =)How do you like the inner-city life? We're getting a taste of it in Atlanta as well. It surely makes for a unique ward experience! Anyway, email me and we can chat some more. lauraprzy@gmail.com
