Fish Lake

It's been awhile since we've been camping, so we decided to go head up north (about a 30 min. drive from Topeka) to Fish Lake. We went with our friends, the Budges. The Jacksons also had dinner with us and stayed until it got dark. The kiddos enjoyed playing with the balls and hula hoops and especially loved roasting marshmallows for s'mores.

Jaelyn played with the kids - they love her!
Maddie played in the tent for a little bit. It was pretty windy up until bed time.
Abbie and her Capri Sun.

Jeremy with Brayton the next morning. Notice the sausage on the grill...we had a delicious breakfast!

Everyone paitently waiting for their sausage and egg breakfast.
Good morning sleepy head! Abigail was the last to get up out of bed.

The girls were just checking out the field. I thought it was cute to see them all together.
Abbie enjoying a bit of watermelon after breakfast.

We took down the camp and headed home just hours before a tornado warning. We all had a great time and can't wait to go again!
