Our First Camp-out in Mississippi










The weather is finally cooling down around here so Dustin and some friends from church planned our first Gulf Coast camp-out. There were three other families with us and we all camped out at Davis Bayou, a part of the Gulf Shores National Seashore. Who would've known we'd have a cold spell and we'd be out there on the coldest night of the season so far! It was in the 30Fs! Jenna and Kelsey did not want to sleep and I spent half the night driving around the park with Kelsey in the van. Everytime I would stop she would start to cry again. She finally fell asleep at 5:45am and slept until about 7:20am. We had a good day anyways. Everyone else had slept so we jumped right into the day with a BIG group breakfast, followed by a visitor's center visit complete with a movie, a short hike, seeing a huge alligator, and then breaking camp. It was a fun time. Now the weather is back to normal with nighttime lows in the 50Fs and 60Fs. Too bad we didn't go this weekend!
