Part 4 - 1st Family Camping Trip



The weekend between Grandma's visit and flying back to Kansas City, our family went on our FIRST family camping trip!!  I was pretty excited about this, because this is something I've wanted to do with the kids for a little while.  I don't think Mike was quite as excited, but he seemed to enjoy himself, too.  In fact, we plan to take another family camping trip soon!!  This trip, we went with some friends and new friends.  There were 4 families there and 10 kids.  We went to a campground about an hour away.  There was a few things to do there - hiking trails, playground, swimming pool, mini golf, shuffle board...  We did almost all. 

You can't camp without roasting marshmallows and making s'mores!!


Since I didn't get a picture of our tent, here is Jacob standing in front of our friend's tent (that looks like ours).
Ashlyn eating (and making a mess) with strawberries!!

Lauren had a great time camping, too!!
