Camping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This past weekend we got to try out camping for the first time. We went with our really got friends the Vohs family! We had booked this back in Feb and have anxiously been waiting for this weekend to come! This past week there was A LOT of prep work involved getting ready and we were all excited! The forecast was going to be HOT, and stormy, but we were hopeful that the rain would hold off!

Friday morning we got up there and Mike set up the tent. There was little swearing going on so that was good. The kids were so excited and wanted to get into the tent right away! After we got all settled in we went swimming. They have a man made lake there that they treat and everything so you don't have to worry anything creepy crawling on you! The kids LOVED this. Noah has no worries at all. He would just float along. It was a little diff cult for Caeden as he could not get his face wet because of his stitches, but he still had a great time!

We came back and had some yummy dinner and some smores. The kids did so well playing that the adults could just sit back and relax. Both boys did so well sleeping in the tent and we were not up too early the next day!

The next day we went swimming again and the weather was looking a little gloomy after we got done, but we were still hopeful. So we made some calls and it was not looking good. Just as we got packed up it started to rain.

















We were all so bummed, but the Vohs family was generous enough to have us all over and we would try and contiune our camping weekend by having a sleepover! We had pizza's over the fire and some more smores and just as we were finishing it started to storm in farmington! We even saw some reports on the news that a tornado had touched down in Lake Elmo! Whew, glad we got out of there!






All and all in was a GREAT weekend and we can't wait to try camping again!!!!!
