Our friends recently bought a camper and have been testing it out at different camp sites in North Carolina. We, last minute, decided to tag along with their trip this weekend. We met up at Dan Nicholas Park Campground, only about fifty minutes from our house. Luckily, we are able to rent the site next to their spot. Their sons are close in age to Harper and Ethan so it was perfect! The kids had a blast playing at the park exhibits, roasting marshmallows, and horsing around the campsite. It was Ethan's first camping trip. Apparently we didn't learn from taking Harper camping shortly after she learned to walk three years ago - bringing a kiddo who has just learned to walk is a messy, messy adventure. We all had a wonderful time and are trying to plan our next camping trip with the McCabes!
Ethan was so very excited to play with our camping equipment. He had a blast exploring the campsite. He became very familiar with all of the roots.
Harper is an experienced camper and marshmallow roaster.
Little man loves his chairs!
Harper slept in Alex's old sleeping bag.
We brought Ethan's travel crib which fit perfectly in the tent-mahal.
We walked along a beautiful lake to get to the campsite park which included a water feature, carousel, kiddie train, playground, and nature center.

Cozy sleeper
Both kids slept in their half of the tent all night. Harper must have been tired because she didn't wake up until 8am!
