Family Camping Trip at Tippah Lake

On Friday, we left to go to the lake for a quick camping trip. We all love to escape "real life" and get away from it all by going to the lake and just enjoying the beauty of God's world.
I bought a ladderball game and the children really enjoyed playing with it. None of us had ever played before and it was really neat. Alec especially enjoyed the game.

Both children enjoyed gathering wood for the campfire. After gathering the wood, the wind was so strong that we decided to roast hotdogs in the grill instead. Later, the wind died down enough that we felt comfortable starting the campfire and they got to roast marshmallows.
My husband's idea of camping includes our satellite, TV, and DVD player.
Kirsten and Alec also enjoy playing with our magnetic dart game.
It is so relaxing by the lake with the breeze blowing through the trees. LOVE IT!

Alec loves to be by the fire also.
