Hannah's first real camping trip

We decided that we were going to go camping this summer. We usually go to the North Shore camping every year, but we decided that we would go a little closer since this was Hannah's first real camping trip. We ended up going to La Crosse, WI. It was nice to have a shorter drive and to be able to set up in the daylight.
Hannah absolutely loved camping. She loved being able to spend so much time outside. There were two parks at the campgrounds, so she was able to swing and go down the slide a lot. There was also a beachfront, where Daddy and Hannah went swimming. It was a little too cold for me.

Within only a few minutes of being there, Hannah figured out how to climb up in the camping chairs. It was nice because she stayed still for a little while so we could set up the tent.



Here is our new tent. We absolutely love it!! We can stand up in the center and there is a ton of room. Plus, it rained on Friday night and none of our things got wet. It was the first time that has happened.

We bought a new camping chair that was Hannah's size and a new football. Hannah loves the football!





We went to Grandad Bluff in La Crosse. You can see Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin from the outlook point.

Hannah wanted to help take pictures.




Here we are at the Children's Museum. Hannah loved it. There were exhibits for kids of all ages. There was one point that I could not find Andy and he was playing with a bunch of the kids at one of the exhibits.
