Last week Wednesday we left for our second and final camping trip of the year! This has become an annual trip that we take with a group from Valley Christian! As we started our trip and drove through the city of Bakersfield, we could not pass by without a stop at our favorite ice cream spot, Dewars!
We did learn a lesson though...and that is maybe we should save the ice cream for the trip back home! The road from Bakersfield to Kernville, our destination, is a very winding road, and both Faith and Shane ended up getting car sick!!!! Be thankful I don't have pictures of that! But the good thing was given it was the older two kids, both were able to tell us they were not feeling well and we could pull over each time so that there was not a gross, smelly mess in the car!
With our extra adventure on the drive up to camp, we were all especially excited to arrive at the campsite! The kids quickly found some of their friends that they had met last year, and all three were off to play while Steve and I unpacked at put everything into the trailer! Something that makes this trip easy and enjoyable is that we have a trailer delivered to our campsite! Upon arrival, it is fully set up and ready for us to enjoy!
The kids love being able to ride their bikes around the camp ground!
One of the highlights each trip is the nightly fire! Shane's mom is winning the "mother of the year" award for not bringing any type of sweatshirt or jacket for him! And in years past this would not be a terrible thing, but it was colder this year - down to the low 40's at night! We were able to go into town the next day and find him a suitable jacket that was even on sale!
