This past weekend we met The Quist Family at Baraboo Hills Campground for our second annual camping weekend. Let's just say it went better than last year and know it will be even better next year. The hardest part is that routines are gone and kids get crabby (well at least the 3 year old does). Brooklyn was SO excited to sleep in a tent, she couldn't stop talking about it. Emmett loves the outdoors, so he was in his element all weekend. He was super dirty, but had a great time playing in the dirt and sand. Emmett didn't sleep so well in the pack and play the first night, but did take a 3 hour nap on Saturday and slept much better the second night. I always feel bad for the other campers knowing that my child can probably be heard crying a mile away in the middle of the night. Oh well...it will be better next year.
On Saturday we spent the morning at the beach playing in the lake and with the sand. We came back to the site for lunch, Emmett took a nap, the big kids played games and read books, and then we all went to the pool, jump pad, playground, and mini golf. The kids all got along fairly well. The Racki's joined us for the day on Saturday, but didn't stay either night (they had friends staying at their house and they didn't know if they wanted to venture staying with Katelyn being 4 months old). I unfortunately don't have any pics of them or other fun activities we did...too busy I guess.
S'mores are always a hit at the end of a long day. A great way to "sugar" up the kids before bed.
Thanks for a fun weekend! We are looking forward to next year...I wonder what new "fun" item will be brought next year (this year it was a mini fridge, last year it was a bar and bar stools)
