I think camping the weekend after Signing Day will be a tradition. Last year, we went out to west Texas and this year, we stayed a little closer to home. DJ and I realized that we would have some time for only one weekend in February, but with the girls commitments, we needed to stay close to home. He found us a spot at Lake Georgetown, and after school on Friday, we headed there to camp!
The weather on Friday was gorgeous! It was warm, and we explored down by the lake.
There is a big hiking trial around the lake (like 20+ miles) and our plan was to tackle a little bit of it on Saturday, so we stayed near the campsite Friday evening. The girls had so much fun riding bikes, skipping rocks, and being out in nature.
The lake was gorgeous and I could easily see us spending a weekend here this Summer with the paddleboard.
Megan, of course, was all about the gymnastics.
Lots and lots of exploring.
And some reading too ;)
We grilled steak on the blackstone, along with potatoes and asparagus. Dinner that night was so yummy!
After dinner, Megan, Gretchen and I headed back home. Both of the girls had early morning activities on Sunday, so we wanted to sleep at home, and get them to where they needed to be. After I dropped them off, I headed back to the campsite.
Adalyn was super excited to see me :) Actually, she was excited I was there, so DJ could cook bacon for breakfast. Bacon is her favorite.
Around 11, we got out for a drive and explored some areas near the lake. We got out and walked at an overlook area but it was cold! Around that time, Gretchen let us know we could pick her up, and since we were all out, we all went to get her. Then, we stopped for snowcones, because we had a few minutes before we had to pick up Megan. While we were out it started to spit snow! We picked up Megan, and headed back to the camper.
Because it was so cold, we just stayed indoors! I took a nap, the girls played, DJ emptied the gray tank, and around 3, it had finally warmed up enough for us to get outside.
Because it was so cold, we opted out of hiking, but we did walk a few campground trails, and went back to the lake.
And, the girls rode bikes.
DJ made chicken fajitas for dinner- yum!
We started a fire and warmed up with smores!
Camping is a favorite!
Sunday morning, we had breakfast and headed home. We have a Spring Break camping trip planned in a few weeks and we can't wait to get back out!
