This weekend was daddy's 26th birthday so what better way to celebrate then to start off the camping season and go to Dillon's Beach! Drew has never been before, so we were really excited to take him! Brandon, Rachelle and Christian Schwab joined us too (Christian has never been camping either)! It took about 3 hours for us to make it to the campsite because of all the pit stops between all of us...Drew was not having fun at this point, but we finally made it so it was ok. We were concerned it was going to be rainy and cold all trip because it was when we first got there, but it cleared up pretty quick and the sun came out. I sat Drew down to have his first interaction with sand and he wasn't too sure about it. He poked it a few times with his finger and pretty much wanted to be held :) We finished setting up camp and decided to walk to the beach. The water was really cold so Drew wanted nothing to do with sticking in his feet (it was around 3:30 and he hadn't had a nap yet so needless to say, he started to morph into Mr. Crankypants...he usually has 2 naps by now!) It started to get cold so the boys ran back to camp to grab us all sweatshirts. While we were waiting, a nice lady offered us towels to keep the boys warm. While Drew was all wrapped up in the towel, he passed out! We just decided to go back to camp and let him sleep a bit before dinner. We had awesome smoked ribs, corn, and garlic bread...so yummy! Drew woke up about an hour later and he had his dinner. Drew and I ate in our tent because it was so windy! Night quickly came and the wind died down a little bit so we came back outside to sit by the fire. We made a "birthday smore" for Brad and sang him happy birthday :) Andrew stayed up way past Christian and even ate some smores! I finally got to him fall asleep after singing to him for about 30 min then I was tired, so I just stayed in there with him. I didn't get much sleep, because I was really worried Andrew would be too cold and I kept checking on him. Sometime in the middle of the night, he ended up in bed with us so mommy and daddy had about 2 inches of mattress to share. We packed up pretty early and headed home the next morning because it was cold and we were all tired plus it was already Sunday and we all have work tomorrow. Drew slept just about the whole way home (mommy did too)! We stopped over and checked out the newly re-vamped Nut Tree and had lunch and then headed home. Overall, it was a fun first trip for the boys and we look forward to many more camping trips! Check out some of the pictures from the trip...
