Camping Trip - November 2009

While most people were out shopping on Black Friday, the Hadleys were on their way to Fredericksburg for a camping trip with Kristen, Darren, Aly, and Cameron. Kristen reserved a cabin and a tent site at the nearby KOA. This was my first time to camp somewhere other than a state park and it had it's pluses and minuses. On the plus side, this KOA had private bathrooms that each had a toilet, sink and shower. That came in real handy when it came time to give the boys a shower. On the downside, there weren't any biking trails which the kids were looking forward to. We got to the KOA around noon on Friday and set up camp. After that, we ventured into Fredericksburg and walked down Main St. We stopped in several shops and ended up eating dinner at a German restaurant before driving back to camp. Saturday morning Kristen made hobo pies for breakfast. After we all ate, we made the short drive to Enchanted Rock. Everyone but Jude and I made the climb up the rock. Jude was napping in the car. Saturday afternoon was spent napping, riding bikes, and playing on the playground. We made burgers and hot dogs for dinner and I taught the kids how to play Uno. Dessert that night was a super yummy peach cobbler Kristen and Darren picked up at the pecan store. Here are some photos from the trip, many of them taken by James.
