We just got back from a great camping trip with our church. We went to Stephen Foster State Park in White Springs, FL. http://www.floridastateparks.org/stephenfoster/ The campground was beautiful and they had lots of things going on this weekend. We arrived at the campground on Friday night and spent most of the evening setting up our campground. I'm not sure how many people from church were there but I think there were at least 10-15 families. Saturday was a great day for exploring and hanging out with friends.
There is a museum honoring composer Stephen Foster that houses several very cool old pianos. I know my Grandma would have loved that part (She's pianist/organist)!
And they also have a little craft village where you can visit a blacksmith, potter, jewelry makers, quilters, etc...
There was a huge bell tower on the campground that Jackson danced to every time it played.
That boy sure loves music!
The grounds were beautiful and had lots of great photo op moments. There was a little fountain by the museum that of course Jackson had to play in.
We also enjoyed all the flowers that were in bloom. Phillip loves taking photos of flowers and wildlife so he always spends a lot of time doing that when we are camping.
Saturday night we all ate dinner together. It was great to all be together. What a fun, crazy bunch:)
Susan got a scare when Gavin put a "skunk" under her chair:)
The highlight of the weekend for us was that my mother-in-law was able to come.
We had a great time together and Jackson was able to spend some quality time with Grandma!
One last picture of my sweet boy!
It was a great trip but just to short. Now the joys of unpacking:(
Looks like a fun trip. I love taking pictures of flowers and wildlife too. It's way easier than trying to get a picture of a busy little toddler. I love the last picture of Phillip and Jackson. I agree that a weekend is too short to enjoy a camping trip. Glad your MIL could go with you too.
ReplyDeleteI really like those flower pictures, Hannah. Phil took those? We loved spending time with you guys.
ReplyDeleteMarcy, I think Phillip took half and I took half of the flower pics. He's pretty good at it:) We had a great time hanging out with you guys too. You know Jackson can never get enough of his Matt:)
ReplyDeleteHi Hannah ... I love all the photos you have shown us. It feels like we've had a real glimpse into the things you saw. I particularly love the picture of Jackson with his fingers touching the water from the fountain. And that last one is truly sweet and gorgeous. Glad you had such a nice family and church weekend. Love you ...
