Campground Fun

We spent the Saturday of Labor Day weekend at the campground.  The campground was hosting a carnival for the children in order to raise money for the play ground they are in the process of building.  What a fun way to spend our day watching all the little ones have so much fun... Once all the children had arrived we headed up to the carnival only to have it start raining about 5 minutes after we got there.  So we headed back to the camper and all the children played inside the porch while the rain poured down.  It stopped raining so we loaded everyone up again and headed back to the carnival.  We might have made it 15 minutes this time before the rain came again and stopped our carnival game fun.  This time the rain didn't stop and we never did make it back to the carnival, however, we did all have a good time catching up, playing games, and watching the little ones play before our cookout!

There was a bake sale that evening as another fundraiser for the playground equipment and this time we were able to go without getting rained on.  So while the adults watched the bake sale auction the children played on the play ground equipment that was built, played on the gulf carts and played in the mud.  

Okay I shouldn't say they all played on Mud Mountain but Harlow, Addi & Aubrey sure had a good time!  All three of the girls were covered in mud by the time the bake sale was finished and it was time to head back to the camper.  Fortunately they were up for some picture posing first.

 

The carnival might have gotten rained out but these girls had just as much fun playing on a big mud pile that they didn't even miss the carnival.  Time with their cousins is always a fun time!  What a great way to spend a Saturday in the summer!
