Lily's First Camping Trip - We survived!

We survived! We had our first night of camping in tents with Lily on Friday night and it went pretty good.



We got there around 6 pm and set up camp. Below is a picture of our "dining area." We had two large tents and 5 adults, 2 teenagers, 4 kids under 4, and a poodle.







We grilled hotdogs and spent the evening watching the kids play and roast marshmallows. Around 9:30, Lily got so sleepy but she fought sleep until after 12. This was the only tough time. She was so tired, but was so afraid she was going to miss something. After we finally got her to sleep,, she slept until 7:15 am. Here is Erin and Lily enjoying their hot dogs.

I love this pic! Erin, Hunter, and Lily were laughing about something.




This picture is funny, too. I am not sure what Lily and Hunter were up, but Lily has her flashlight ready.


This was Saturday morning while we were getting ready to ride the boat and the tube.


This is me, Hunter, and Lily riding the giant tube behind the boat. Lily and I both experienced a first at the same time because I had never done this either! We both had lots of fun!

At the end of our ride...notice these pics in black and white, not sure how my camera settings got changed, but almost all of our pictures from the boat ride, are in black and white. lol..


Another plus to our trip was that the weather was really cool! I almost froze Friday night, but it kept the mosqitoes away so we were able to enjoy the nice night with no annoying bug bites!


Happy Camping to all!
