July 4th - Day 2 : Palisades and Fireworks

July 4, 2009

Day 2 - Palisades
Today we ventured out to Palisades reservoir. What do two fishing boats, one very large pontoon boat and lots of friends add up to? One very fun day on the reservoir! We spent the day out on the lake today...good food, good friends, laughs, great weather, swimming, music....you name it. We had so much fun today on the boats until...again a horrible storm moved in. We decided to head back to the dock, but not in time. First it started sprinkling, then pouring rain and then HAIL! Lots of hail. Luckily the boat we were on had a zip up enclosure on it so we stayed dry and pretty warm. We loaded up the boats, getting soaked in the process, and headed back to camp.

We hurried back to Shelley for our family 4th of July party at Michelle's house. We had a BBQ, fun and FIREWORKS. And most importantly, I got to shower and sleep in my own bed for the night.

Day 1 - Set up camp and swimming at HEISE

Over the 4th of July weekend we went camping at Heise with a bunch of our friends.

Day 1 - Friday July 3rd We got to camp around noon unloaded, set up, ate lunch and then we were off to the pool. This is all the girls could think about....swimming swimming swimming! We spent the afternoon at the pool and the slide until a very scary looking storm moved in. So we packed it up and headed back to camp just in time to. As soon as we got back it started pouring rain, so for the next hour or so we were hiding in the trailer watching a movie and munching on snacks. Then just as quick as the storm moved in it was gone. Finally, dinner time. After dinner we sat around the camp fire talking and making smores.
