Camping at Rockport

This last weekend we went to Rockport to do some camping. Not going to lie... I was not too ecstatic about going because I am not a camper, but this trip turned out to be a blast! We went up Friday night with my mom and Holly and her twin boys. Tyler was especially excited about this trip because he got to use his new tent and sleeping bag! He LOVES them and they worked out super well.

We hurried and set up our tents before it got dark and then roasted some "mishmellows" as the boys call it.

The next day we woke up and went out to the lake. Holly had purchased a sweet raft for the day and Tyler and I rented a kayak. This was the best part of the whole trip! I loved being out on the water and exploring in our kayak. David and Mckenzie also came up for the day with their sweet water chairs, complete with cup holders :)







 David used a stick to try and make his way back to shore... looks like it's kinda workin' out for him!

Holly almost had to call for a life guard while she was in the raft with Will and Ben. The wind started to pick up and her raft kept drifting away and she couldn't bring it back so had to jump into the water and swim, pulling the raft with her! Thanks to lady who was next to my family and brought attention to them that Holly was in trouble, nobody even noticing that she was in the water, David went in and helped her get back.

We were planning to stay over Saturday night as well, but got rained out so we came home early after we ate a very delicious tin foil dinner. All in all it was a great trip, despite Holly's time in peril :) I definitely want to go camping again, which is saying something since I dreaded it before! Tyler is a happy man now.
