Silver Springs Camping

This past weekend we enjoyed our annual trip with friends to Silver Springs camp ground - a fun way to kind of kick off the camping season! The weather was some what cooperative, a few showers on Saturday but not too horrible. The kids all seemed to care less and kept on playing.

All of our camping friends are dutch oven masters now too -- making for some fine feasts when together! The food cannot be beat - in fact our dinners are so amazing that we eat a light lunch and few snacks... gotta keep the bellies ready for good food! Bryan also enjoys a certain breakfast dish that he cooked up each morning, makes way more than our family  can eat but luckily there are others to help enjoy it.

Once again a wonderful weekend!

Silver Springs

Last weekend we joined friends for year three of camping at Silver Springs. This is a nice little campground that is pretty close to home - making it an easy weekend destination. We have come to realize it is not fun to travel Friday night, enjoy Saturday and head home Sunday - so little time to really get down and dirty for camping! Well, the dirty part -- with kids, that is a no brainer!

We had four families camp and some friends come up for a day trip - making it a great time! It is always lovely to have a lot of folks along for visiting, tons of kids for play and laughter, change of activities and game play <-- that used to happen before Hudson. Hudson, sweet Hudson. He is one very active little boy. Hudson probably roamed several miles this past weekend with no real destination or purpose, except to roam. Fortunately I had friends to roam with us and keep me company. They also gave us some breaks and roamed aimlessly with Hudson! Thanks guys!

Anyhow, on to the photos from our weekend!

Silver Springs

This weekend we took our first camping trip of the year up to Silver Springs with some great family friends. The weather started off a tad iffy on Friday, however it stayed dry that night and was even beautiful for Saturday. Sunday though, we woke to rain... causing an early pack up of camp.

The kids all had a wonderful time together exploring nature, playing and hanging out as a group. They were able to not only enjoy our campsite but also a fun little nature trail, beach time along the river and the largest marshmallows we have ever seen! A definite highlight to the weekend.

For Hudson, this was his very first camping trip and he was a wonderful trooper! He was in his usual wonderful spirits, seemed to enjoy the outdoors and slept well. I would say he will be a natural to the outdoors much like his sister is.
