Our first camping trip

The Ward family took their first camping expedition this past weekend. We booked space at San Onfre state beach a few months ago for the memorial day weekend. I used to camp there years ago when I was in college. I thought it would be a great place for us to start since it is so close to the city.



Here is our tent. My brother gave this tent to us a few years ago. We were thrilled that is was so beautiful when Joe put it up.



Olivia and Audrey settled into the camp site while munching on Cheetos.



Audrey had fun trying on daddy's hat.



Olivia had fun with dad's hat too!



Audrey and Olivia has so much fun roasting marshmallows around the fire pit! They loved eating s'mores! I think it was the highlight of their trip. This was the best shot I could get in the dark.



Olivia was her silly self at breakfast yesterday morning. She is so cute when she is not misbehaving!!



Audrey and I took a self portrait! The girls had so much fun camping, but we did come home with several scrapes and bruises. The girls loved running down the trails to the beach and dancing around in circles. I think the total could was 3 scraped knees, and I bloody elbow.






After 3 trips to the beach, 2 camp fires and fun camp site activities we packed up and went home yesterday afternoon. The girls has a great time. I never knew that camping would keep them so entertained.
