First Camping Trip

We decided to make our first camping trip close and relatively simple to see how Mason did. We went to the campground at Willard Bay. It was a chilly weekend, but we had a great time and Mason LOVED it.

Here he is splashing in the water, getting all wet and cold. He was mad when we took him away. He kept pointing at the lake from our tent and grunting to remind me that he wanted to visit again.


Scooting through the grass...


And a short video of him scooting around the picnic table. I was amazed at how long he kept going around and around. He must have been at it for a half hour. He made sure to stick to the dirt and concrete, he still gets off the grass as fast as he can.


I neglected to get a photo of our entire party. Kade and Minda came, and so did Sue, Matt and his kids. It was fun to get out with some of our favorite people. My dad and Susan even joined us just for dinner.


 Here are Damen and Mason sitting around the campfire after dinner.  Mason was so tired from all his playing. He fell asleep in the tent shortly after this, and slept great...until midnight.


Good morning! I was surprised to look over and see that Mason had found my toothbrush. We tried to keep him in the tent for awhile, but he was pretty excited to be up and going.




In the tent...all bundled up and ready to face the freezing cold morning!



A few photos looking over Willard Bay.

It was a good time, and a successful first camping excursion with the boy. We are hoping to get out again soon!
