First Camping Trip

Mark celebrated his 29th birthday on Thursday, June 14th.  We decided to go camping before it got to hot for the summer and headed to Chickasaw Recreational Area in Sulphur, OK.  We left mid morning on Thursday an arrived at lunch.  It was already pretty hot when we arrived.  We ate lunch then sat up camp.  Wes could hardly wait to get to the stream beside our camp and play. The water was pretty clear and you could see the fish swimming.


Once Wesley woke up from his nap we drove around the camp ground and found a few natural springs so we got out to explore.



Wesley found a few stepping stones through the springs and loved to jump from one to another.


One our way back we found three deer having a snack.
We had a great time fishing in the stream.  You could put your worm on top of the water and the perch would immediately take it under.
Mark and Wesley starting our camp fire for dinner and smores'. 
Wesley found a huge spider web and thought he needed to take a picture with his camera so he could remember it.
Throughout the day Wesley would ask us if it was time to roast marshmallows yet.  He was so excited when it finally was time.
Playing by the waterfalls after dinner.

When we got up on Friday we headed out for a hike before we left.  The grass was very tall, so we carried Wesley the majority of the way.
