Hooray for Camping Season!

All of us are so very excited that camping season has arrived! As is tradition, we took our first trip of the year over Memorial Day weekend to John Gurney Park in Hart. It was a fabulous weekend spent with family. My pictures are rather disorganized as I was uploading from two cameras and Kristin's facebook page, so here they are in no particular order ...


The girls know that camping usually means fishing, and they had been talking about it for days before we left. Noelle tells the story best ... she didn't catch ANY fish all weekend, but on going home day, they went fishing one last time, and finally she got a fish!!! A black croppie.
Saturday was very chilly and a little drizzly so they did some fishing under the bridge, Addison caught 2 fish!


Saturday night got a little warmer so we took our first boat ride of the summer, and did more fishing of course.


Mommy took lots of walks with Emma, she's a great little walking buddy, her face says it all ... she loves stroller rides and she loved her very first camping trip


Playing Ticket to Ride with the big girls


There was not a lot of napping done during this trip, two of my girls just exhausted after a fun busy day!


Matt is great at making fire food ... he cooks hobo pies, marshmallows, hotdogs, etc. to perfection, so I always make him do mine for me. Just don't have the touch.
