Summer Trip

June 10, 2010

We decided to go to South Dakota for a mini vacation for a few days in June. We wanted to be adventurous and do something different, so we decided to camp out instead of stay in a hotel. We ended up staying at a KOA campground in Deadwood. On the first night we were there, it was raining a little, so we had to put the tent up in the rain. It was only about 60 degrees outside, but the girls wanted to go swimming. It was a little too cold so they took a dip in the hot tub afterwards. The next day, we went to Mount Rushmore, Bear Country USA, and Reptile Gardens. We got to see all kinds of different animals. After spending 2 nights there, we oacked up the next day and headed towards home. We stopped to take a picture of Devils Tower. When we got to Sheridan, we didn't feel like going home just yet, so we ended up staying the night at a hotel there. The girls wanted to have one more night away from home, but we were tired of sleeping on the ground. We swam in the pool that night and ate pizza. The next day, we headed home. Jaxon was probably the happiest to be home. He didn't like the sleeping arrangements at all. It was nice to get away, even if just for a few days!
