4th of July Connecticut Camping Staycation

July 4th Celebration

I hope everyone enjoyed and had a safe 4th of July Holiday Celebration!

My family enjoyed an extended long weekend and returned from our camping trip to the Connecticut seashore.

We’ve been camping since the kids were little, and now my daughter and her husband camp with their two children – and Grammy got to tag along!

The weather in New England hasn’t exactly been stellar this summer here in Connecticut, but it did hold out for our camping trip.  It rained for about 15 minutes one night after we were in our tent.

The days were extremely hot, and I managed to end up with a miserable sunburn on my back – probably the worst I’ve had in 20 years.  And yes, I did wear sunscreen!

‘Lil Moomette and her brother Slugger enjoyed the beach and carousel rides! Auntie was visiting also and we roasted hot dogs, toasted S’Mores, and had a campfire every night!

I’d like to thank 5 Minutes for Mom and Hebrew National for hosting the July 4th Virtual Backyard Barbecue Linky which runs through July 10th.

You’ll also have an opportunity to win a Breville Professional Indoor BBQ Grill, for commenting on posts!

You can join the fun by linking to your blog posts and pictures from your 4th of July celebration.

Let me know how you celebrated the 4th of July!
