Ward Campout

We are usually always up for camping fun, so we were excited to not miss out on this years ward camp out at Cape Lookout State Park. I have many fond memories of camping at this park as a kid. We would go there every year for most of the years that I can remember. I hadn't been back since I was a teenager, so it was extra fun for me to reminisce.

We had a really exciting dinner of hot dogs over the fire, followed by the requisite marshmallows. We played hard on the beach and in the water. The kids had a blast playing with so many friends. The girls even got to try out body boarding. We built a big fire on the beach for smores and let the kids all run around. It was lots of fun! The weather was pretty much perfect, and the next day left us plenty of time to play more in the surf. There were these great tidal pool areas where the kids could play without dealing with waves. It was really great. Of course we hit up the cheese factory on our way home. It's kinda funny how Neil knows the routine at that place now. He gets mad if we try changing it up on him.  (We have to go upstairs first to see the cheese, and then get in the sample line, etc...)
