Memorial Day 2017

Tres Rios~Last Day

On our last day we went back to the creek so the kids could play.
They met some friends here this weekend, who they played with all weekend.  They all played in the creek together before we all had to pack up and head back home.
 We ate lunch and then packed up camp to head back home and close out our school year.
We had a fabulous weekend doing what we love best!

Tres Rios~Day 3

Today was overcast and misted off and on.  We tried to do some morning fishing, but had no luck.
 We spent some time in the camper while we waited for the misty skies to clear up.
The kids played cards and had some storytelling time.
 When the skies cleared up, we set out to explore. 
 Since the Brazos River was low, people were wading out to the middle to hang out.  We decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did!  We skipped rocks and had fun collecting shells and interesting rocks in the dried up riverbed.
 We played until time to get dinner ready.  We ate, rode bikes, played on the playground, and then headed to bed.
We had so much fun exploring today! 
 Goodnight campers!

Tres Rios~Day 2

We started the morning with a hike around Squaw Creek.
 The boys had fun driving their remote control cars in the dirt! 
Behind them is the point where the tres rios (3 rivers) meet.  Squaw Creek, Paluxy River, and the Brazos River.
 Horseshoes and tether ball are always a favorite! 
 It warmed up nicely today, so a swim was in order! 
 Followed by ice cream!
 Then an afternoon in the creek.
 Yummy camp dinner, more playing, biking, showers and hanging out at our campsite ended our day.
