The kids were as usual very excited to know we're going camping. After a quick round of packing(we're getting faster at getting the stuff together, OK, Alan is getting faster), we were off! Thank goodness, it's only a little over an hour drive.
We got there, set up tent, ate and went to check out the lake. The kids were impressed by the lake, i was not! But hey, i'm not the one who has to go in it! :)
So, for the next day and a half while the kids had so much fun in the water, i spent it sneezing and wiping my nose. Some pollen must have been at it's peak and really got to me. Every time i look up from my shady hide out, the kids are like digging up a mud castle, flinging mud at each other, diving into murky water. It's like what i always say, kids don't need fancy. Give them a muddy lake and they have a ball! Tyler even said, it's the best adventure EVER!
Oh, they've finally caught on with the whole fire idea and was pestering us to build a fire and make marshmallows. So, we did for one night.
Anyways, here are the pictures:
Tyler exploring the grassy lands..
Cody and his angry face
Cody and his mud piles

Happy as a water buffalo. I guess his texture problem is history!
First attempt at a pyramid
2nd attempt at a pyramid
The best pyramid
Having so much fun
Dinner time
I had to wade in the yucky water to get this shot
See.. pure pleasure..
They got their fire, don't ask me why they are standing so far away!!
Tyler and his marshmallows
He keeps saying, "I got the perfect one, mommy"
The kids loved their sleeping bags
One last dip before we left. They were looking for Tyler's missing shoe which got stuck in the mud
And here I am.. hiding in my shade paradise
