We went camping for the 4th of July weekend. We had originally planned on staying 2 nights, but only made it through one night. Let's just say it started off rather rough, but ended pretty good!!! We got there and it had been raining all day. (That should have been my clue to just not go!) So because of the rain, our campsite was a pond. The kids were running in the water like crazy, and being the clean freak that I am, I just could NOT stand it!!!! I felt like I was constantly telling Macie to get out of the water, not that it mattered because she was already wet, but I just hated the thought of all of it. Anyways, we got the kids to bed and then sat under a tarp for a couople of hours and just talked. The talking was fun and we had a good time, I just can't stand the whole water thing!! So, we go to bed, thinking that the raining was done (it wasn't) it rained all night and half of the next day. Well, our tent has never leaked but this time it did! I am pretty sure that I had a steady drop of water falling on my head all night. Exciting, I know! The next day, we had a nice breakfast, and then we were all ready to pack up and go home because I could not stand the water any longer, when some other friends showed up and got us a different camp site that was dry!! We had already packed up all of our stuff at this point, so we decided that we would not stay another night, but we would stay through dinner. It was a fun camping trip, one that I will always remember, but I think that if I could delete the rain, I would!These are Addie's favorite snack. She was so funny because I just handed her the container that was about half way full, and she just sat there and downed the whole thing!! She was loving life!!
Also, This trip made me realize how happy I am that she doesn't crawl or walk yet, can you imagine the mess she would have been!? It is so nice that she likes to just sit there!!!
Here is Macie having a breakdown because she did not get a nap. She was having a pretty rough afternoon because of that fact. She was crying over EVERYTHING.
This is Macie within 2 minutes of us getting in the car, she was out of it!!! Tired girl!
Here is Addie. Within 5 minutes of us being in the car, she was out of it.
It was a nice quiet ride home. Then we got home and had to wake them up to bathe them. That was the worst. I wish I could have just put them straight to bed. All in all though, It was a fun trip!
