it's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring

so! i went camping this weekend (and by this weekend, I mean only Sunday night). It was pouring almost the whole time, but the sun came out just in time for me to be able to make sure my mom's tent was all dry (her tent has about the equivalent importance as another child) before I packed it up. I haven't laughed so much over the course of 24 hours in ages! I almost fell off the picnic table bench...ridiculous! top 10 funny moments:
1) Jessie running at me, attempting to jump on my back while yelling "Donkey! Donkey! Faster, donkey!"
2) People pretending to throw each other over the bridge at the falls (we were at Brandywine Falls)
3) Sean picking up Jessie at randon intervals and flipping her upside-down (awesome!)
4) Jessie: "Ohh, our bathroom smells sooo good!" (note: bathroom=outhouse)
5) Kate: "I am SUCH a man!" (this was apparently brought on by her ability to open her drink without a bottle opener)
6) Me, Pete and Kate's renditions of camp songs for an hour and a half on the way up...we're quite talented, actually.
7) All sorts of weird picture poses...people standing on train tracks, people doing Charlie's Angels-type action poses, Jessie taking pictures of people's butts (don't ask why...she's weird)
8) Pete and Kate attempting to set up a tarp...yeah, that was funny.
9) Me and Jessie singing Mr. Brightside at the campsite at random intervals...people from other sites applauded!!!! (or something)
10) the games, the card games...the weird rules...'nuff said.
So, that's that. I'll post pics once the people who have digi cameras get around to loading them onto their computers and sending them to me. woohoo!
