This was Courtney's 1st camping trip and the first time we have been able to tent camp as a family in quite a few years. The campground was full by Wednesday afternoon, but Jennifer had gone down early and reserved 2 sites (1 for us & 1 for Christy's family). We spent 4 nights there and had really nice weather.
Christy, Phillip, & their children came down Friday afternoon. Their school (Trinity Christian Academy - TCA) was playing in the softball state tournament in Murfreesboro, so we watched them Friday night and Saturday morning.
The kids had a great time riding bikes, playing on the playground, roasting hot dogs, making smores, swimming in the pool, and playing some games on the softball field and tennis courts. While Phillip kept Tori, the rest of us went on a guided horse trail ride. Courtney was not real excited about leading the way on her own horse at first, but once the guide was able to help lead her horse, she really enjoyed it.
Courtney was able to get into the pool by herself although she was still concerned about water getting up to her neck. I had to convince her that she did not have to worry about that anymore since the trach hole is now closed, but she was still hesitant. She eventually relaxed and enjoyed her time in the water.
It was a very relaxing time and we enjoyed getting to spend time with Phillip, Christy, Tanner, Trace, & Tori. We were able to get packed up and almost home before we ran into any rain (we always get rained on when we camp). We are looking forward to more camping trips, hopefully another one later this year.
