I am so glad you had a great trip. It sounds like a complete blast! Definitely worth making an annual tradition.

Like you, I am always amazed at how much I like and enjoy spending time with my kids. They blow me away sometimes and I am always struck with this feeling of how lucky I am to be part of their lives.

OOO! I'm so glad you had such a good time!

I've always wanted to do the kayaking thing. Sounds like a lot of fun!

resulting in lots of "what's around the next bend?"

Had me singing Pocahontas. haha.

Ooooh that sounds amazing! I'm so glad you all had so much fun and I loved the bit about your kids. ♥ It made me very happy. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

Kayaking is soo much fun! When I was in the scouts we used to go on camps to the lake and race with the damned things. It was even more fun when we just went on random explorations discovering shiny new beaches and... uhm... houses?

Ice cream truck? Every night around dinner time? It doesn't get any better! (Yes, I chose to gush over this instead of the radiant stars and incredible thunderstorms. Don't ask for logic. ;))

This sounds like the best yearly tradition ever!

hee. glad it made you happy dear. You are very welcome.

Kayaking was amazing. I wants one. Now.

LOL! Totally logical. We actually CHOSE this campground BECAUSE of the ice cream truck. Priorities is priorities, after all.

That sounds like so much fun and happiness all at once! I'm slightly envious, but mostly just happy that you had such a great time. :)
