Our First Family Camping Trip

May 1, 2010
We decided to go to Brazos Bend State Park in Needville, TX for our first family camping trip.  We tent camped one night and had a wonderful time!  The park was very beautiful.  Lily was able to see lots of wildlife...including deer, alligators and lots of birds!

This is a picture of our camp site.  Our tent was set back under a canopy of trees.  The site also had a picnic table and a fire ring and grill.  Just what Billy needed for cooking our foil dinners.

Roasting marshmallows is a MUST on a camping trip!  Billy is showing Lily how it's done! 

Now, this is the right way :)

We still have smiles after a very long night in the tent!  Penny stayed up all night guarding our tent door.

Searching for caterpillars and rolly-pollies was Lily's mission on this trip.  She ended up with 4 caterpillars and LOTS of rolly-pollies.  She did release them before we left the park.
