A camping we will go

We went camping here over the Fourth of July. IT WAS AMAZING! We had four days of bliss together. The best part....our phones said "no service" the entire time.

Cabin #9



The main room from the kitchen.

Oh OH---You read right....KITCHEN!!!

Up above the bed is the loft, with two beds up there.

We had the projector set up.




I've never been so thankful for an appliance!
No cooler with melting ice and soggy food wrappers.



Watching movies together. LOVE!

On the left (behind the lamp) is a little room with bunk beds in it.
Bathroom with hot shower and flushing toilets on the right.
Fully stocked kitchen on the left.






We went to watch a firework show here.
I don't know where this is, but it was wonderful!
Look at all the boats waiting for the show. They shot the fireworks off across the river. It was so pretty here.




Nothing passes time like sparklers. There was too much traffic, so we did this instead.



Catching crawdads.


Simone just lay in the grass and sang songs. Love this little songbird.



Now for some art!

I love this little camera. I, as a photographer, should be better about bringing cameras and such on trips. I have forgotten on MANY occasions. I forgot a SD card this time. We got one from a little shop for $30. I think these images are worth every penny. (If I do say so myself.) I LOVE THEM. I have MORE, but I'll share a few here.





This one is my favorite!



Or maybe this one.






"Wyatt go poke the fire so I can get a picture of it."




dirt
smoke
bug spray
sand
sunscreen
ketchup
smores
orange soda

Then I put her in a warm shower, clean jammies, and real bed....
that is my kind of camping.





Crawdad Family

This is our family of five photo for this trip! Did we eat them?
YES! All of us!

This sounds like it was such a great trip (and cabin!)! Those pictures were totally worth the new card. I can't believe how big those crawdads are. I have only caught tiny guys before. These look like lobsters!
