And we're off.....We're heading to lake Murray for a two day camping trip. We are super exciting! Wish us luck and great weather!!! For those of you that don't remember our last camping trip-let me repost the blog from last May....hahaha, it was a mess but it made great memories. I'll let everyone know how this camping trip goes when we get back!
Happy Easter Everyone!!
Rewind to last May:
What a bizarro camping trip we had this weekend. We decided since we both love to camp and we've never taken Keagan that this weekend would be perfect so off we go to camp. We have about an hour and a half drive to get there and when we were about 10 mins away from the site all of a sudden it dawns on us that we forgot ALL of our blankets and pillows-so to walmart we go to spend an extra $60.00 that we shouldn't have had to spend. I'm sure you can only imagine my mood at this point. When we finally got there and pull up to our site it sucked! I was even more mad but luckily the statepark ranger was super nice and three hours later hooks us up with a spot that we loved. (So it took awhile but he went out of his way so I can't complain there) We get out, unpack, set the tent up. Lovin' it! Keagan is having a blast. We're right on the water and we're fishing, swimming....It's just great. Night starts to fall and we start a fire, roast some "cold" dogs (we have to say that because if we call them hotdogs keagan thinks they're too hot to eat, lol) grill out some steaks, roast some marshmellows. Life is good!
Finally bedtime comes and once everyone gets in and settled I could not sleep to save my life. I swear I heard something that sounded like animals carting our grill away. About 3:00 Aaron wakes up and says he hears thunder and I kid you not no more than a few seconds later a loud clap of thunder comes, lightening is making it look like it is daylight outside and the rain is coming down in buckets! And of course I remember my cellphone is outside on the picnic table. Aaron's response was that it was already raining and how long could it last.... Well 5 hours later we're still dealing with severe storms and tornado warnings and of course my phone is dead. :( UGH! It's finally daylight outside and we stick Keagan in the car to play while Aaron and I pack everything up in the pouring rain. We're soaked!
Just as we think our camping weekend can't get anymore exciting we decide to stop at a place for breakfast and discover when we're ready to leave that we locked our keys in the car.... I'm thinking to myself-WHAT A MOTHER'S DAY!!!.... About $60.00 and another hour later we're on our way back home!
Even with all the events, we had a blast! Keagan did great! He is a camper for sure! And we will go camping again but for now I'm happy to be home with my bare feet on my soft carpet watching the rain come down from inside! I also have tons of pictures to follow this. We ended up taking about 150 pics so in a bit I'll go through them and get some posted
