Weekend Campers

John and I went on our first camping trip together, just the two of us! As we were planning, we got so excited! The whole week leading up, we took a trip to Academy, planned out the financial part of the trip, picked out clothes we would take, etc. etc. We were basically like two little kids going on some big adventure. That's a part of marriage that I absolutely love- the fun that we have together! We have laughed more in the last few months than I have.. ever. :)

Anyway, enough gushing. Our original plans to camp at the Gulf State Park fell through. They were booked up. Guess that's what happens when you don't make reservations! Well, lesson learned and note taken for next time :).  We ended up at Meaher State park and camped outside this random fence. I have no idea why the tent campers are exiled to this grassy area outside of the rest of the park, but that's where we stayed!  It was fun though and made for alot of laughs later.



The sunset from the pier was gorgeous!! Picture credit to my awesome hubs. :)

The next day we got up early, scarfed down McGriddles from McDonalds, and went kayaking at Little Lagoon. Hope this is the first of many weekend camping getaways!

  1. We really love camping in our camper. It is some of our best family times. I often wish we had bought a small camper or popup when we first got married. Then we would have some cool memories of just fun get away or exploring the country trips.
