Spring Break @ Florence Dunes!

We actually made it down to Florence. The weather looked gloomy but we went despite the forecast. Sierra and Cole had their first track & field meet the night before, so it was a late night getting everything loaded and ready to go. Steven and Cole drove the truck and pulled the trailer . They left almost 2 hours before us girls did. It was nice, when we arrived they already had the buggies unloaded and the quick shades and tent set up. Along with the camp stoves. We got there just intime to roast wienies over the fire for lunch. Filled the buggies with fuel and we were ready to go. Syd was the only one brave enough to ride with Cole driving. (besides Mom and Dad) Are we hot or what?

So our first ride out, Steven came up on the edge of a razor and the sand was extremely soft and gave way, with all the rain we have had there were lakes everywhere in places that there never use to be so we had to approach with caution.

I had to let out a scream!

These girls look thrilled! I was driving but pulled over and switched with Cole.

Syd in her many layers!

Presley

Sierra!

I took a picture of them before they took off. Ya never know if they were going to come back alive with Cole driving. For sure it was a given that you would be covered in sand! ( and they were!)

Same if you rode with Steve! Sierra's friend Cassie came with us and this was her first time in a buggy on the sand. It was priceless to hear her scream! Awhhh such great memories!

Cole's hair looks awesome, spiked bangs from driving!

Presley, Maddy, Cassie, Sydnee & Sierra just returning from a nature walk

The girls sleeping quarters

This is a rare pic, one of Cole not turning his head when he sees the camera.

Thanks again Sierra and Cole for roasting lunch!

The firewood we had was just awful, it was damp and just smoked! It seriously had the worst smell and the smoke had everyone in tears! Literally!

Steven was good at keeping the wood chopped and ready to go on. Thanks Hun!

This is what I usually get when Cole sees a camera

We had a blast! Rode inbetween rain showers , went on nature walks, made a music video in the bathroom and decided to braid all the girls hair on the last day! We were SMOKIN'!

BTW we have been home for a week and everything stills stinks of camp fire. Including our clothes that have been through the wash twice already. (still finding sand in places that it shouldn't be too)Can't wait til the next trip! Fun times!
