I walked into the garage were Edward was packing the supplies needed for our camping trip. I was so excited! The whole family was going on a week long camping trip! It would be the first outing the whole family had taken since Renesmee had been born. I had been planning this trip for weeks with Edward and Carlisle, and the boys were excited to get out of the area for some new hunting options. We were going to visit some of the forests in northern California. Alice had of course taken me hostage and forced me to go shopping with her so we could get all the needed clothing supplies. Alice and I had shopped for hours! "Hey honey." I said, walking up next to Edward. "Hey Bella." he replied. "We are officially all packed except for our clothes." He informed me. "Thats good. Now I have to go and find Nessie so we can go pack the clothes." I groaned. He just smiled and kissed me on the forehead. "Would you do me a favor, love?" He asked me. "Sure. What do you need?" I asked him. "I have to go pick up some things at the store with Emmett, would you mind to pack my clothes as well?" He asked sheepishly. "Of course I will." I muttered. "Thank you. Don't worry, you don't have to pack anything fancy. Just the essentials." He assured me. "Well I better get going then." I said. He kissed me swiftly on the cheek, and then I headed back to our cottage. Renesmee was talking a nap in her room, and she was bound to wake soon. I pranced through the forest gracefully, something that was new to me. I leaped through the door and bounded into Renesmee's room. She was still sound asleep. I walked quietly into mine and Edward's room, and opened our massive closet that had been a gift from Alice. I searched through the racks of clothes for flannel and cotton shirts, for jeans and t-shirts, sneakers and running shoes, and just in case for, bathing suits. After I had assembled a wardrobe for Edward and I, I went to the section of the closet that was labeled for Renesmee. I found all the necessary shoes and clothes for her, with the exception of a bathing suit. Darn it! The one thing Alice had failed to buy. I brought her items over to our bed, where I had set the other clothes. I was surprised to see a package laying there next to my pile of clothes. It hadn't been there before. I picked up the small bundled package and realized that there was a note. It read:

Ha ha! And you thought I had failed you! Have more faith next time.

Alice

I opened the package, and sure enough there were four toddler bathing suits for Renesmee. One Red, one polka dot, one blue and green striped, and one pink with purple flowers. Alice was right. I should have more faith in her. I quickly folded and packed the clothes in two backpacks. By this time Renesmee was awake. I gave her a piggy-back ride to the house, and then came back for the luggage. When I made it back to the Cullen's house, Edward and Emmett were back from the store and the others were close by ready to leave. I walked over to Edward's side with Renesmee. Carlisle was talking with Esme. "We will leave in five minutes." Edward updated me. "Thank you for packing darling. Did you get everything?" He asked me. "Yea." I replied. We walked out the door with our back packs on, I made Edward carry two, so that I could carry Renesmee on my back. Carlisle said that if we ran at normal speed, (normal vampire speed) then we would make it to our first destination within 2 hours. I ran next to Edward. Carlisle and Esme were at the front and Alice and Rosalie were beside me. Emmett and Jasper brought up the rear. I was ready for a week full fun, Cullen style!

Please review!!! Even flames will be accepted! I will update later today and through the weekend. Also in case you were wondering, Bella is now married to Edward and is a Vampire. Jacob will not be in the story much, but will be mentioned some. This is going to be more of a comedy then it is a romance, but there will be some romance. Also the story will be mostly from Bella's view point, and sometimes Edward's. I hope you enjoy this first chapter! Sorry it's so short!
