Rest and relaxation

We went camping with friends on the ANZAC long weekend for 3 nights and arrived home on Monday April 25. We went to Lake Wivenhoe, not far from Fernvale. It is tiring work getting everything ready for camping. Hubby packed the trailer. I like to prepare most meals before we leave so it is easier when we need to eat, allows more time for relaxing. We had another camp trip with fantastic weather. The kids had fun playing together, swimming, playing spotlight at night, and parents enjoyed sitting around the camp fire chatting and eating toasted marshmallows or S'mores with the kids. I slept a little better this camp trip, which I am very thankful for. I love my sleep. We saw kangaroos, birds, a koala, beautiful stars, the moon rising at night and gorgeous sunrises and sunsets
