Our first family camping trip

So on Friday Aug 31st the plan was to head out and go camping as soon as Danny got home from work. Only one problem with that, the weather had other plans:




- That's right! That was the view from my living room window. We were bummed, camping was not in our future for not only Friday but for Saturday as well. It was pretty stormy. On Saturday night we were feeling sad about not being able to go, so since Danny had work off on Monday we called up Natalie and Brian and decided to go on Sunday evening and stay till Monday.












On Sunday afternoon when we got to the campsite, and after we'd set up our tents and such, we decided to go adventuring on a hike.












We discovered a never house that the kids could play in..
























Jackson got tired of me asking him to smile...so he started making silly faces..












Here's one of Jax sitting on a bear chair. We went camping in bear country, in case you didn't know!




I wish I had taken pictures of our campsite but alas, I did not. We had a fun time. It got pretty chilly at night, but we built a really nice fire and we brought lots of blankets and snuggled together, so we were ok. I'd say this was a success. Jax did not want to leave. He is such an outdoors little boy. All he did was explore the wild, play in the dirt and find bugs. He would have stayed camping forever, If we'd had let him.
