Spring Break Part 2

We had an exciting Part 2 of Spring Break. The kids and I went camping for the weekend. We went with my mother and father-in-law and two of my sister-in-laws with their kids. We had a great time during the day playing outside, riding bikes, blowing bubbles, playing on the playground. We were next to a river and the park had a beach area. The kids found some worms and made sand castles.





The exciting part was the night time. My mother and father-in-law have a RV. They slept in the RV with the older five of the six grandkids. They slept very nice and cozy in the RV. I shared a tent with one of my sis-in-law's and the other had her own tent with a pack-n-play for her little boy. We have camped in October for several years and know that it can get cold in a tent. We both brought heaters to help with the cold. The problem with the heater in our tent was that it didn't work. I am not sure if it was too small for my big tent or what. The point is we were beyond COLD! Brrrr!

The next night they were calling for some rain. We decided to put my sister-in-law's tent up and stay all in one tent. The wind was crazy! I have never been in a tent with the wind so strong. We were even talking about what to do if the tent actually fell down. The good news is we were warm enough and the tent did not fall down. The trip was still lots of fun. I love to go camping. It is so relaxing and I love watching the kids play with their cousins.
