The Camping Report

The forecast called for days of rain and barely-above-zero temperatures and we feared Emma was coming down with a cold, but we hoped for the best and headed out for the Muskokas last Friday. Luckily, the weatheman was wrong (at least in that little corner of the world), Emma's cold didn't worsen, and we were well prepared for chilly weather. [No, we weren't camping in tents, the trailer is equipped with sink, stove, fridge, full bathroom, and heat!]




Although the skies were mostly grey and dreary on Saturday and Sunday(we even saw snow flurries one afternoon!), we all had a fabulous time!





Emma and Big Sister proved to be great little travellers and the six-hour drive was uneventful -- thank Heavens for the portable DVD-player :)

We enjoyed spending time with Opa & Grandma as well as Uncle Dean. Emma was able to finally meet several of Grandma's friends who have been faithfully following her progress here on the Emma Report for months.




Michaela had a great time playing with her cousin Taylor (in spite of a little unexpected dip in the frigid lake!) and discovered the joys of campfires and S'Mores!





Now, we're looking forward to our two weeks of camping on the East Coast this summer!
