Camping 2009


































































Over 4th of July weekend we decided to take the kids camping. The plan was to stay for 2 nights at Kincade. We planned not thinking about looking at the weather report for the weekend. We woke up Friday morning and realized it was suppose to rain Saturday!! Since we already had reservations we still went ahead with our plans. We got down there and set up camp. I kept thinking back to when we were kids and we would take family trips to the lake to go swimming. Now they have a pool to swim in since there are so many boats in the lake. Madison and Ryan had their own tent and Keith and I had ours with Sean & Aaron. They had a fun time helping us set up tents. Then enjoyed playing in them. I thought for sure that one of them would fall before the sun went down. Keith took Madison and Ryan fishing while I stayed at camping getting the small boys down for a nap. We made smores that night. Ryan and Madison loved it, but Sean did not like being sticky so he just ate the graham crackers. The next day we got up and made breakfast. It looked like it was going to rain. A lot of the campers around us had already started packing up. After we ate and cleaned up we decided to go ahead and go home. We packed everything and cleaned up the camp area. Just as we were putting the last bit of stuff into the cars it started raining. It was a good thing we decided to go because it rained the rest of the day. Sitting in tents with 4 kids would not have been fun! We'll be taking them camping again in a couple of weeks. This time we'll check the weather report before we reserve the campsite.
