The camping trip was the highlight for our kids this summer. The weather was really nice the whole week so there was plenty of things to do. They were constantly on the move. There were only a couple times when they would actually sit: on the deck, when watching a movie or in their family room make shift tent.
Adrian and Nathan picked water lilies for their mothers during a kayak trip.
The first couple days were cloudy and windy so they just played on the dock and waded in the water with their rain boots.
Adrian had a blast climbing most of the large rocks in the backyard.
Alexis really wanted swim and her patience was running short on the first couple cooler days but she survived and enjoyed swimming twice a day for 4 days.
Mr. Duke began swimming for the first time. He was hesitant for the first couple feet and would immediately turn around but became progressively braver. At one point he followed me in the kayak well into the deeper water.
We are a camping family. And we are proud of it.
Alexis asked if we could take a photo of her jumping in the air because she had seen it somewhere. It turned out well and she was really excited.
Adrian and I had a couple bonding moments on a couple kayaking trips. He loved kayaking every time we were in the boat.
Just prior to the trip I stopped by Walmart and purchased a Cars themed fishing pole with a weighted fish so that he could practice casting. He practiced for a few days and then he took it with him on a kayaking trip. Out in the middle of the lake he just lets go of it and it sinks like a rock.
