Camping Trip to Cooney Lake

This weekend my mom asked if we would like to join her for a weekend of boating, eating smores, enjoying the sun and family. So after work the kids and I went home, packed up and headed to the mountains. We got to the lake about 8 on Friday night. My mom, Emily and I worked on the tent while Cody took pics then helped Tom with whatever guy stuff they were doing. After we got the camp set up it was time to make smores
then off to bed the kids went. The next morning we had a very pretty sunrise and we were off to fish for a bit. Cody goes fishing with Mom and Tom so he knew how to handle the boat when he was driving. Emily didn't know what to think of the boat, but by the end of the weekend she was driving it and wanting to go faster. Cody just knew Emily wanted to see the worms, she thought the were gross and wanted nothing to do with them. Later when Sandy, Joe and Bayeligh were able to join us we got the raft out to go pull behind the boat. Mom and Cody were able to hop a wave, it was so right at the top of fun things to do for Cody. After that the kids took a little break when the storm moved in then it was off to shore fishing.
That night we had more smores and a very pretty sunset.
Then the next morning it was back to the boat and more fun. While out on the lake we went down a little turn off and happened to look to the side, and we found a cow just chilling.
It was the kids first time camping and they didn't want to leave they had so much fun. They were so worn out they went to sleep for a bit on the way home. However even asleep Emily was not letting go of what was left of the smores.
I went way over on pics so I put them on a music video. We had so much fun, I cant wait till we get to do it again.
