Camp Gigi Pops

Every year my parents take Abbie out for what we call "Camp Gigi Pops."

In past years, their adventures have taken them to Sea World, to see Thomas the Tank Engine, and to the Rocky Mountains. This year they took Abbie camping because she is OBSESSED with camping.

They came over in the morning to pick her up, donned their "Camp Gigi Pops" uniforms, and then planned to run to the grocery store for the necessary camping foods... marshmallows, hot dogs, etc.


I buckled my little camper into her car seat and just as I was shutting the door she said to me, "Oh Mom! Where are my movies and internet box." Nice. What's wrong with kids today!

They had a great time. Don't worry... my Dad brought his "internet box" and Abbie was able to get online and watch a movie. (Maybe she needs an iPhone? Think of the convenience... she could keep up with her correspondence anywhere she goes.)

My favorite moment was when my Mom tried to teach my very-much-all-girl how to catch. Check out that stance.

Other favorite moments? Has to be the footage of my Mom turning over the canoe and then Abbie walking out of the lake, soaked head-to-toe, holding her shoes to her chest, and crying about not wanting to get back in "that thing." Trust me, it's great!

Just another day Being Billingsley...

Sondra and I just died laughing watching her "catch" the ball. Priceless.
