Good to be home

(Warning: Long post with lots of pictures)

We spent the last weekend of Trevor's Spring Break camping, we went to Lake Tulloch and had a nice little campsite right on the water, luckily the water was down or it would have been a little scary with Meghan and being so close to the water, but it worked out pretty good having it down a bit. In this picture you can see where the steps would normally go down right into the water, it was pretty rocky but the kids did fine with it.

Meghan could not wait to get into the water and asked at least a million times to go down there, we kept telling her we had to get camp set up first, which clearly wasn't happening fast enough for her.

Trev is getting quite good at helping his Dad get things set up, it's cool to watch them working together, I can't believe that he's big enough now and can actually be of help to Daryl and not just the "pretend" kind of help. And luckily he can do it, which means I don't have to!


Once we had everything set up all the kids headed down to the water, the water was pretty chilly but they didn't care.

Right before dinner the ducks showed up, looking for some dinner I guess! Meghan loved going down with Uncle Scott and giving them some bread ~

We ended our first evening with a campfire and making smores, yummy!

Saturday started bright and early, before 7 am I believe, since I took the first picture of the day at 7:26, and this was after a night of not getting very good sleep. This was the view from looking out the door of our trailer.

Meghan managed to get down by the water before breakfast, she stayed pretty dry and had fun playing in the mud!

After breakfast Meg & Kaitlyn headed to the showers to get cleaned up. Meg took her bathing suit to shower in, cause that is how the big girls do it, and then refused to get dressed! So she came back in her bathing suit, ready to head back down to the water.

The kids played around until Scott found this raft, and then the real fun began!


I basically sat up by camp with my nice new zoom lens taking pictures and baking myself in the sun for several hours.

This morning we woke up to a wind storm, it was crazy to try and fix breakfast outside and we ended up cooking in the Tidwell's trailer. Packing up was not any easier, it was so windy and so cold, but we finally got everything packed up and we headed out a little after 2:00. Meghan didn't make it long, maybe 15 minutes and then she was out until we reached Manteca, aaahhhh, nice! I think all the water play on Saturday wore her out!

Well, that about sums it up, it was a nice weekend to get away, but it's always good to come home!
