Camping, Boating, and Eating

We took a camping trip with Lauren and Sandy to a lake not to far from here. The campsites were great...lots of room in between, right by the lake, and they even had water and electricity! Our first time camping w/ hook-ups! The weather was so nice...the kids didn't even step foot into the trailer during the day. They played games outside, played in the water, and waited for the next boat ride!
The kids were learning to play Rook this time!

Much of the fun of the whole boating thing is watching the thrill of the kids as they tube, ride, or try to water ski....Trent, Kelsey, and Kyla all tried to ski....(ok, so did I but without success!), but Robert and Lauren were the only 2 who made it up!
Robert catching some air!Sometimes, the afternoons get long when you are riding on a boat, and when you normally take a 2-3 hour nap in the afternoon! We just left him on the boat....Robert would stop, let some kids off, load on other people, and he slept right thru it! He was the only one wide awake at the campfire that night!
One morning, after taking Chloe for a walk at the water's edge, I decided we should eat our bkft down there...so we put our pancakes and smokies and all our stuff in a big bag and went to the shore for a breakfast by the lake! Was great! This was one of our most fun camping trips ever!

Fun! Reminds me of our boating days when our kids were young. Was that Folsom? We sure miss that lake. Pull your trailer down our way sometime and we'll take you for a cruise on the bay. There are some great campgrounds around this area and we keep our boat at the marina ready to go =)
