Labor Day Camping Trip

We spent Labor Day weekend camping with the Ohme's at Kiesler's Campground in Waseca . What a great trip! This was Isabelle's first camping trip and I cant believe how well she did. It was a gorgeous weekend but was a little chilly at night.



The campground had a lot of activities including an arcade with ski-ball and a few other games..and a little pink car that the girls liked to ride.







Eric and I found a turtle on the road and brought it back to the campsite. The girls had a ball with it. We made a nice little cage (home) for him and the girls pretty much stared at it for most of a day. There were a few tears when it was time to release the turtle, but the next day we brought him to the lake and let him go.









The girls had a good time painting rocks...who knew how much fun that was? I now fear that every rock in my backyard landscaping will eventually be painted...



The girsl didnt take a single nap the whole weekend but they did snuggle up in the tent for a little quiet time and a movie.



Ice cream cones at the resort store!



On Sunday we rented a pontoon and spent a couple hours on the lake. It was windy and a little chilly but the girls seemed to enjoy the ride. We spent some time fishing and Isabelle was a little disappointed in Daddy for not landing any fish. We had a few fish on but never got one in the boat.








Sunday night the campground held a kids dance with a DJ. The girls danced for a while and had a good time...Isabelle got a box of popcorn and a free ride home on my shoulders.










Isabelle turned out to be quite a little trooper...brushing her teeth by the fire with only a bottle of water and her headlamp.









Long fun filled days make for very tired little girls...they both fell asleep sitting by the fire!




All together we had a fantistic labor day weekend!
