The summer fun continues with our first ever family camping trip for the weekend of the 4th. Thanks to the Lanes we weren't truly camping because we were sleeping in their camper. It worked perfect and the kids LOVED it. The very first day it was set up the kids were in the driveway playing in it. They could have played out there all day long! It was a very, very relaxing weekend full of playing in the sand and water, boating, eating, laughing, beanbag toss, golfing, talking, laughing, and just hanging out. The kids slept awesome. Nolan was soooo excited the entire time and when bedtime came he would immediately crash for the night!
Of course with Tessa's birthday falling on July 5 it's hard for her to not think that all the pretty fireworks are for her. There were some fireworks on the 4th but the big display was on the 5th...for her birthday of course :) Everyone made her birthday so special as she woke up to a birthday pancake, lots of songs being sung to her all day, getting tons of boat rides, birthday cake celebration, presents, and to top it all off her "birthday" fireworks on the lake. I couldn't even begin to count how many times she smiled on her birthday. It was a very special day and she genuinely loved how special everyone made it.
It sure was a fun weekend. The pictures never do it complete justice but I captured a few pics of the kids enjoying themselves :)
My kind of camping...sleeping in a camper right next to a beautiful lake house!
There is always time for a quick snuggle :)
Someone loved fishing!
Love this picture. Derek and the kids fishing during sunset.
Breakfast in the camper...so exciting.
Let the boating begin!
Snuggle time on the hammock.
