The night time went ok, except for Tyler sleeping with Erik & I because he was scared at night. The morning was a disaster. The second the sun came up (5:30 a.m.), Tyler was up. And when I say he was UP, he was loud, talkative, and screaming at everything. He wanted to make sure the entire campground was awake too. Needless to say, we were packed and out of the campsite by 6:15 a.m. We learned that age 4+ is probably best for camping. Evan had a blast and loved everything about our camping adventure!
Packed & ready to go!
I love my minivan.
Road trip!
We made it to Grand Haven! Beautiful water & beaches and great friends to enjoy it with.
I'm holding a cold, wet Tyler and trying to smile for our picture!
Evan's beach set-up
Tyler & Gwen, beach buddies ("Hey, is your diaper as sandy as mine!?")
The best we could get for a pic of the kiddos; Evan, Tyler, Kellan & Gwen (Yes, Evan is dropping sand onto Tyler's head)
I love the sand!! (yes, that is sand on his eyelash)
Grandpa Kent gave Evan is FIRST fishing pole and Evan got to test it out!
After a full day on the beach, Tyler fell asleep before we even left the parking lot.
But he perked up the second we got to the campsite!
Our set-up!
Family walk to the lake / sand dunes
My boys :) XO
"MOM, I love camping!" We call this Tyler's camping hair (holy humidity!)
The boys were running so fast! Pure Michigan :)
Evan: "Mom, how do we start the fire?" Me: "Rub two sticks together." Evan: "OK." That kept him busy for 5 minutes.
Boys love fire.
Cutest camping buddies ever. Seriously, Tyler's hair!
Erik had a few camping "rules" that Evan liked to remind us of (he's clearly the first born, Type A child):
1) No shoes in the tent.
2) Close the tent door, don't let bugs in.
And the rule that Evan added to the list? No farting in the tent.
Love these two!
