Trailer Adventures: Dunes Addition.

We have thoroughly been enjoying our little trailer and the many adventures we have taken. I deeply hope that these are the parts of childhood that our kiddos think about fondly. That the memories made stay with them for a life time. I know they will forever be engraved on MY heart.

One of the greatest parts of these adventures is discovering all the hidden treasures that the Midwest has to offer. Some right in our own backyard. By backyard, I mean within an hour or two driving distance. But when compared to the whole wide world...it counts. Our latest spot, The Indiana Sand Dunes. What a treat! White Sand, blue waters, and beautiful glumps of long grass. Who knew you could find that in Indiana, not this gal! The state park is well maintained and clean, with plenty of room between camping sites. This was my favorite spot to date.

There was plenty of hiking and exploring. Which scores major points in this family. We got to pick a different route down the the lake each time. The oldest was handed the map and given the responsibility of navigator...He was in 7 yr old boy heaven. It was really neat how a forest can still plant roots in the sand!

You came off the trails and onto the beach, The white sand and turquoise blue of the water was a wonderful surprise!

We spent a couple of hours each day down on the beach. The wind was chilly and the water ice cold, but we couldn't resist sticking our feet in. We rolled around in the sand, collected rocks, and I got to play with my camera without receiving any complaints. So I took advantage!!

Thankful for a weekend full of time. Time spent laughing, playing, loving, and living with my favorite people in the world. The one I chose to walk this life with and the three that our love created. Blessed.
