This past weekend we decided to go camping. The weather has been beautiful, but of course, it turned freezing cold this weekend. We went to Anastasia Island in St. Augustine. It is about an hour drive from home and a really nice camping spot. The beach is literally walking distance, there are tons of trails to walk or bike and also lots of places to go fishing or kayaking. Plus it is a very short drive to amazing downtown St. Augustine, where are the cute little shops are, or a little l0nger of a short dirve to the outlet mall!

Here R.J. just finished getting our tent ready and the lights up for dinner...
Here is our campsite in the daylight...
We opted to allow Drew stay home with Grammy the first night and friends of ours, Jodi & Kelley brought him up early Saturday morning. He immediately took off on his own through the woods, fell & almost poked his eye out, and refused to take a nap because he was having too much fun! I'm not sure why he is crying in this picture other than maybe his dunp truck is stuck and he is mad about that ????
Like I said, the beach is within walking distance from our campsite. Here is Drew and Will runnning for the water. Yes it was cold out. Yes the water felt like an ice cube. But... what can you do
This picture was taken seconds before Drew did a face plant right into the water. BAM - he's soaked! I took his clothes off and he ran around anked for a few minutes while RJ ran back with his bathing suit. I really didn't think he would go in the water! Oh well, I was wrong.
In was a fun trip. Drew ended up coming back home Saturday night and spending the night with Rainie, so he didn't get the entire camping experience, but we tried and we will have to try again next year!
