Last weekend we decided to go on a last minute family camping trip! Samantha, when you are older, remember that Daddy is a list guy. If you want him to do something for you write it down. Mommy did not do this time...and...well...somehow we made a full size play pen, Samantha, myself and Josh (who is 6'4") fit into a tiny pop up tent, which was no bigger than the size of our coffee table!
But, besides the tight sleeping quarters, it was a great time!
We travelled just outside Kitchener to
Country Gardens sister park,
Landings Campground. It was so nice! Lots of shade, clean sites, clean bathrooms and super friendly people!
Samantha had a blast swimming in the pond. Turns out those
swimming lessons are coming in handy! She loved to lift her legs up in the water and float around! She even got dirty in the wet sand, playing with Daddy! Though, she was not a fan of the dry sand. It stuck to her hands too much to be "fun".
I think her favorite part was being "free" after swimming! Running around bare behind, us chasing behind her with a diaper! She protested every second of that diaper change!
Our neighbours were super friendly too! One guy gave Samantha a freezie, that was basically the size of her. Come to think of it, that may be one of the reasons she was a tad hyper after dinner and not sleepy until waaay past bedtime. And another neighbour, generously loaned us an old teddy bear that sang a sweet lullaby. Samantha was simply hypnotized by the melody and motion of the teddy, which quietly
soothed her to sleep.
I can't wait to go camping again, but perhaps this time with a bigger tent and more s'mores!
