First Time Having Parents at the Campsite

This weekend was a fun four-day weekend because my youngest daughter graduated from high school.  Huge plus of a seasonal site is we had somewhere to take my Dad and Step mom during down times to just hang out and the lake was great for the teenagers to lay out and have some fun with the boat.  Thursday night when my dad came in we all hung around the campfire and Lee and I made chicken, corn on the cob (wrapped in bacon), and crunchy cole slaw.  It was an inexpensive way to feed 7 people and my dad got to see our camper.  He was very surprised as he is not internet savvy at all and has only heard me talk about it over the phone.  I don’t think he had any idea how luxurious it is and he was duly impressed 🙂   Here’s some pictures.

Friday was the graduation so we hung out closer to home, but on Saturday we all went out and spent some time by the lake then had a great dinner in town in the evening.  The kids had an awesome time boating, swimming, and diving…and I finally swum out to the diving platform myself.  Was a little chilly but I made it!!

It was a great weekend…although light on the actual camper time due to other commitments…but it was great getting to show my dad what I’ve been talking so much about.  Plus all my kids are now graduated!!!!  Hooray we made it
