Camping

It's been a while since I blogged so I thought I would....
We had SUCH an awesome weekend and I'm in such a good mood! 
We had originally made plans to camp with another couple at White River Campground in Montague (it was one of the few campgrounds that had an openings left for the 4th of July weekend. We had our name on several waiting lists at other campgrounds), but they ended up cancelling so we decided to camp somewhere else. My dad had mentioned a campground in Hart called John Gurney Park. They happened to have two cancellations last weekend so we were able to get in. We took a ride up there last weekend to scope it out. It looked right up my alley! Grassy, beach, super clean bath-house, and most of all... QUIET. And THAT it was. I loved that park! We didn't have THE greatest lot but it was good for us and right across from the tennis courts, baseball fields, etc.
So, Greg, and I packed up the girls (dogs; Cleo and Reese), and headed North Saturday morning (after of course, going to the Muskegon Art Fair and buying a couple of really cool things). We had SUCH an awesome weekend (with an exception of the starter in the Bronco dying on Sunday and having to go to Ludington to get a new one and replace it in the campground). We just relaxed, listened to music, etc. The manager of the park was awesome, everyone was super friendly. It was a great place. Monday we went back up to Ludington to buy the rest of my party supplied (decorations). So all in all, we had a great weekend and it's only going to get better from here. This Saturday is my 30th Birthday Party!!! I can't wait!! Lots of great friends, family, food, laughs! I couldn't be more excited!
