May Long Weekend Camping

We do not typically go away on the long weekend, but this year, we decided to join my parents up at the Vedder river for the long weekend. The kids were looking forward to camping with Grandma and Papa, but were even more excited when we arrived to find a kid-sized atv for each kid.
Many hours were passed riding around the field, down the dirt road, and any where else we could find to explore! 

 Ty was Papa's little shadow, following him everywhere he went. Here, they are eating apples together.
 Nahla is going to be quite the fisherman one day. She spend hour practicing her casting both on the grass, and into the river. It is amazing how far she can cast with her little Barbie fishing rod
 When not shadowing Papa, Ty shadowed Nahla. As much as she liked this at first, she got tired of it pretty quickly. She kept moving her chair, and he would run after her with his!
 And of course, he wouldn't let her cast without having a turn also.
 They found a happy medium when they decided to build a sand castle with Grandma.
Despite the rain, we had a great time. Camping with kids it great!
