Camping (7/9-7/11)

Kinda at the last minute, Levi and I threw this little weekend camping trip together the second weekend in July. We wanted to attend this airshow in Marshall, and since it is a few hours from here we decided to make a weekend out of it and go camping as well. Levi's parents let us use there motor home for the weekend. That was really wonderful...not sure how we would be able to do tent camping with Kai. We ended up get reservations at Camden State Park, just a little south of Marshall. Below are pictures from camping. The pictures from the airshow are in the next post.

Got to our campsite a little later than we had originally. So didn't do much that first evening.

The next day we attended the Airshow in Marshall (in the next post) and then afterwards, we took the boys to the beach at the campground. They were so excited to go to a "beach"! They had so much fun!

Unfortunately, Kai did not get to play at the beach. We are hesitant to be in lake water due to his feeding tubes. Not sure how safe that is for him.

The second night we were there we had some icky weather that went through. Our cell phones didn't work down in our campsite and we couldn't get radio stations to come in very well. We got a lot of rain and it got very windy, but luckily nothing major happened. The rain sounded very loud in the motor home, but surprisingly it didn't move around much with the wind. Felt bad for the tenters. We had fun! Hopefully we will be able to go camping again sometime.
