Camping at Fort De Soto
The day after Thanksgiving we packed up and headed over to the beach for a camping trip. Pauline, Billy, Cindy and Zoey joined us so we were 7 total, 3 tents, 3 cars, 1 canoe and a bunch of racoons.
The weather was beautiful. Just chilly enough to still wear long pants in the daytime and a good fleece at night. We had a campfire going each night and this time we brought a stove so we were able to make yummy breakfasts like pancakes and eggs.
Our campsite was right on the water so it was perfect. Saturday we spent the day on the beach and touring the Fort. Drew and I have 2 tents so we took the little one and Jena, Cindy and Zoey shared our new big one.
Drew had Jena and Zoey building fires by Saturday. We all had a great time and Jena absolutely LOVED it! Drew and I were a little worried she may not like it, may get bored, etc. She said it was the "best vacation ever" (alot of things are the best thing ever since she's been here so we feel very lucky to have a child that is so easily pleased).
Below are some highlights from our weekend...Enjoy!
