Lucy's first camping trip


We had a fantastic time camping last weekend. Griffin had a birthday party for one of his pre-school pals to attend on Saturday morning so we did not hit the road until noon. We headed straight over to Rough River Dam State Park, about 1 1/2 hours away. The campground was ok. Some of the spots were really terrible - small, no shade, tightly packed together. Luckily, we were able to grab a spot on the outer loop that was a little more private and shady. After setting up camp, which took awhile because we had a new tent and Griffin and Lucy were "helping", we took a great walk in the woods.

AHHHH, that is when Bruce and I really started to relax. Sunshine was soooo happy, finally back to her element. We had a great night cooking on the fire (Griffin loved the s'mores) and just hanging out. We had brought Lucy's pack n' play and she was so good about playing in it so we could get some things done.


Sunday was spent exploring the park, swimming in the river and hanging out together. Packing up went quickly and before we knew it, we were on our way home. This was a great time to get the kinks worked out with our new tent, make sure all our supplies were in good shape and see how the kids would do. Now we are very ready for a longer trip. I can't wait!
