Camping at Lake Connor

Zach's schedule has been unpredictable enough that we have only made it down to Lake Connor with the family one other weekend. Zach had to work again this weekend so the kids and I decided to go down anyway.
(one of many potty breaks on the side of the off ramp, ooooh the joys of traveling with a newly potty trained toddler. No wetting the car seat yet. Thank God)

This is the most recent lot that has been added to the family. It is the kids' playground. The boys filled the turtle with gravel off of the lot. Austin was quite upset when Levi dumped some of it back out of the box.
We normally put our kids to bed at a somewhat normal bedtime even when camping. On one of the nights we let them both stay up pretty late for camp fire time. It didn't take much for them to stay entertained. A couple of giant flashlights and they found all sorts of things to do. I love camping with family. Our kids all play so well together. The two younger ones still tend to play around eachother rather than with eachother but this has by far been the easiest year so far to camp. Ellie is no longer eating all the rocks and Samuel entertains himself. Next year there will be two new little ones.
We got rained on a little bit. Between showers we still managed to do a maternity shoot with Kelsie and Karissa. We even spent about an hour in the heated pool before everyone started to get a little blue around the mouth.
