Jack had only been camping one other time in his life- which was last year in Wisconsin. I was hoping that this time would be as relaxing and wonderful as last year. 
Ella and Jacob!They liked just sitting my the fire and singing songs.
Jack wanted to be helpful and set up tents so he was in charge of the stakes.
After setting up camp we headed over to long lake. Just a very short drive away. This was the trail down to the water.
Lucy and Ella. They had so much fun finding shells and digging in the sand.
Mary and Jack
Ella and her favorite shell.
Jack's first real experience with sand.
He just ate it.
Aaron and Jamie brought their bikes and carrier! It was so nice to take kids for rides around the camp ground. At one point Mary even got both Lucy and Jack to fall asleep while on a ride!
Ella was very helpful with the firewood, loved singing along to Aaron's insult songs and ate ALL of the chips! Jack was a little naughty. He wouldn't let ANYONE else touch him, let alone hold him. If I even walked three feet away from him he threw fits! So much for the relaxing weekend.
On our last day of camping we drove over to like Michigan!
The kids had more fun digging in the sand and playing in a little raft!
Papa tried burying Ella in the sand, but she escaped and wanted to wash off, Papa helped.
Jack and Mary
The boys had a pretty serious Frisbee game going
We had so much fun camping! {well, it would have been more fun if jack had been better} Here's hope that next year will be the best camping trip yet!
