Camping!

This last weekend we decided to join some friends of ours and go camping. It was a lot of preparation, but lots and lots of fun. The park where we camped had a great lake and we were able to borrow a canoe to take out! The kids loved getting out on the water. So the days were spent canoeing and running around getting dirty with friends and the nights were spent around the camp fire, roasting marshmallows and drinking hot chocolate. Emily didn't sleep to well which made for long nights, but we still had a great time. I didn't take as many pictures as I should have, but here are a few that I thought you all might enjoy!

Setting up the tent! Our tent is pretty old school so it took a little longer than we expected to get it set up! We decided a new tent might be nice for the next time we go!

There was a little park not too far from out sight. The kids had lots of fun on the slide!

At the nature center they had a cool little alligator show. Here is Ethan petting the baby alligator!

Sitting on the dock.

Out on the lake. This is the only picture I have of us on the canoe. The kids loved it!

This is the view from our camp site. It looked right over the lake. You can see from the smiles that everyone had lots and lots of fun!
