This past weekend we went up to Camp Z with a bunch of people and had a wonderful time. We drove up late Friday night and had some sandwiches for dinner. Unfortunately they have a ban on campfires right now so that was my first experience without a fire! Actually it was really nice because that was once less thing I had to watch out for with the kids. They had such a great time. Isaac and Rachel (his babysitter) took off and I didn't see him for about an hour. Another one of our friends took Sarah so Gary and I could put up the tent. Isaac loved going down to the lake and he wanted to throw rocks in constantly. We wouldn't let him for awhile because people were trying to fish. Later that evening we roasted marshmallows over a grill and made smores! Not exactly like a campfire, but we sure tried. We finally tried to go to bed around 10:30 and the kids were wide awake. We finally just let Sarah climb around in the tent till she tuckered herself out. It got very cold that night and so I didn't sleep very well, not to mention I was sharing my sleeping bag with Sarah. Isaac couldn't figure out that he had to sleep IN his sleeping bag. He kept trying to put it on top of him. So by 6 am we were up and ready for the day. Gary took Isaac out on the lake in the canoe for about 2 hours.
They did a ton of sightseeing and Isaac was in heaven.
After breakfast we all went back out on the lake and had a wonderful time.
The area was gorgeous and it was fun being out and enjoying nature. We packed up around 11am and the kids both crashed in the car and slept the whole way home. We had a wonderful time!

That looks like such a fun trip! Glad it was worth the sleepless night. I love Isaac's face in the pic where he gets to help row with his own oar. Sarah has such a cute smile too!
