Both Matt and I went camping as kids and loved it. We both agreed that we wanted to be able to give Cassie that experience if at all possible. So on 4th of July weekend we went on over to the RV place on a whim and took a look at a few different campers. We knew we wanted to start out small and work our way up the RV chain, so we knew we wanted a nice little popup but dutifully let the sales guy show us all the nice popup models with the slide outs and the trailers with the popout ends but still bought the nice little one with the 10 foot box.
We picked it up later that week and had our first trip out (in our backyard) that weekend. Last weekend we took our first *real* camping trip. We are hooked, I can see us being camping weekend warriors discovering our little neck of the world one campground at a time.
Cassie doesn't quite know what to make of this whole camping thing yet, she did excellent here in the yard, but was a bit fussier when we got to the real campground though I don't think it was the camping that made our little fussbudget fussy I still think its partially those darling little pearly whites that have been coming in for the last four months. So I think once we start going out more and we get her into the swing of things she will start to love it as much as we do!
And without further ado...pictures as always...
Our Staycation
Pack n Play fits very nicely inside the camper....
Stove, fridge, furnace and sink, who could ask for more? (oh yeah the mattresses are heated too for those chilly fall camping nights)
Sirius is making him self right at home
Outside stove as well!
Our first real camping trip at Moreau State Park...didn't realize there was no electric, but we made due (i.e. Matt went and bought a battery so we could have the fan on for white noise for Cassie :) ) we will absolutely go here again next year, it was quiet, the price was right and it had a great little lake where you can swim or kayak and a beach for Cassie to play on!
Cassie is just mesmerized by the camp fire
What's camping with out a little s'mores??
Wait, did I say little? I meant ginormous

Last day, hope she had a good time!
