Family Knolls Trip...

 Friday after Nic got off work we headed out to the Knolls for a fun riding weekend with Nic's family.  It's funny that you pack just about as much for one day as you do for a week.  I was a little nervous for this trip because it was our first time towing with our new car and I didn't want anything to break.  But it towed like a champ which made us quite happy.  When we arrived to the Knolls we set up camp and got a fire going.  We roasted marshmallow's for s'mores and told stories.  Well as we were going to bed around 12 a.m the wind started and never stopped! The kids all slept really well while everyone else had the longest night of surviving the wind in our tents.  It was miserable! You can tell in the picture below of Connor sleeping how much sand blew in our tent that night.  The wind kept strong all day but we didn't let that stop us from playing.  It wasn't until around 3 that we decided we better start packing up.  And packing up was very miserable.  We were being blasted with sand.  It was so bad that we were shocking each other.  I didn't know that was possible.  Next time we plan a trip to the Knoll's if there is any chance of wind we will pass.  But aside from the wind we made some great memories and had a really good time!
