Thomas and I took Friday off and headed out. It is about a 3 hour drive and by the time we got moving, we were ready for lunch before we got into Mammoth Cave. So, after stopping for lunch it was time to get to the park.
Here are the boys at the entrance to the park (Tapanga got sick yesterday and ended up staying with Mike and Diann for the weekend).
While setting up, Gwen started chasing Tanner around with a big stick. He loved it!
Tyler and the girls playing on the fence.
After setting up we played a game of keep away with the kids.
After setting up we were ready to go exploring and made it as far as the store, when a down pour came! So to wait out the time we bought the kids some push ups to munch on!
We walked back to our campsite in a light drizzle and waited it out in the tent, the kids though played in the rain.
After the rain ended, we set out again to go exploring and came across the Mammoth Cave train.

The kids enjoyed looking over the bridge near the visitors center.
While walking Tyler and Fiona held hands...very cute. Tyler is such a ladies man.
On the way back to the campsite we came across the amphitheater where we let the kids put on a show.
Joy wanted us to put on a show for the kids, so here we are, Joy cheerleading and me playing the air guitar. We can be a little silly sometimes!
It is time to cook dinner! Thomas worked on cooking the burgers while Tanner and I watched.
Melissa even got into the cooking!

Joy cooked the dogs for the kids.
The kids made a worm habitat for a worm that they found.
After eating we enjoyed some relaxed time together.
Of course, we can't camp without s'mores!
Eric also made Jiffy Pop over the fire, which turned out ok.
Thomas and the boys relaxing.
Even though we had to put up with a little bit of rain, we have enjoyed our first day and night camping again!
