1st Camping Trip

I know this post is late but I don't care. I wanted my kids first camping trip documented on my blog. We finally decided to take the camper and actually put it to camping use. Blair had been living in it all summer. It was the first time I had ever stayed in it and also the kids. We finally had somewhat of a free weekend the end of august so we loaded up and went camping with some of Blair's family. I had to work Sunday but had saturday and monday off so we camped overnight on Saturday and I got up early and went to work all day and then drove back that night. It actually worked out great from my point of view. I'm not much of a camping person. Sitting around all day in the dirt bores me. Blair keeps trying to tell me that it's suppose to be relaxing. So to just hit the highlights of the food, campfire, and playing games was just perfect for me. As you can see the highlights of the trip for Cassidy and Statton were just playing in the trailer.

Poor Mckay still had his jaw wired shut so he was still on the all liquid diet.

Here is Cassidy and Statton enjoying their breakfast Monday morning.

Statton enjoyed playing with the cooking pots.

Overall it was a short fun little trip. I enjoyed sleeping in the trailer rather than in a tent. Blair's been trying to convince me for years if I had a trailer I would enjoy going camping more. He's probably right. It was nice being able to take a shower and bathe the kids. I did learn a lesson about owning a trailer. When I turned on my hair straightner and put in by the sink in the bathroom and it started to melt into the side of the sink, blair was quick to remind me that the sink is just plastic not porcelain. OOPS! no bad damage just a slight mark. Learn something new every day.
