Camping Trip to Lake Lanier






We had a great time on our first tenting adventure! We combined that with my first triathlon (super-fun!), so it was quite a trip. More on the triathlon in a later blog... The kids did fantastic. We spent two nights at Lake Lanier Islands and Resort. The site was right on the water, and had water and electricity - good for washing dirty little hands and a floor fan in the tent. There was plenty of shade to pitch the tent in and protect the picnic table. The first night, Friday night, was all about getting settled at camp and picking up my race packet. Saturday morning I got up at 6:00 am to get ready for the tri. Eric and the children were able to see me on the run leg of the race! It was great to see them on the course! I got back to camp and we went right to the water and played. They didn't do very well with naps in the tent, but we've learned that Lauren now gets to skip naps at camp and Ethan gets to have a peaceful, quiet atmosphere from now on for his nap. Saturday night we had a campfire and marshmellows. Sunday was more fun in the lake, then we packed up for home! Our camera ran out of batteries, so we didn't really get a chance to take many photos.
