Camping

Daniel and the girls love to go camping...me...not as much. I endure the great outdoors because they love it so much. We recently went on a fun camping trip, the weather was perfect and we had a good campsite and the food was good too :) We hiked in a little ways and found the perfect site to set up camp. It's a good thing we brought the big double stroller this time because it made it so easy for Daniel to go get all of our stuff from the car and wheel it over to our campsite. After we got things set up we made some yummy hot dogs and had chips and cookies (which ants later got into) and then when it got dark we put Sage to sleep in the tent and we made popcorn and s'mores and played games and Daniel got to look at the stars with his telescope.

We all slept pretty good in our tent and it didn't get too cold, so we were all in a pretty good mood the next morning. We had breakfast and went on a hike and then packed up and went home to wash off all the dirt (that's my favorite part of camping...the shower after we get home) But we really had a great time and Eden is already asking when we can go again :)

Sage all bundled up for breakfast :)

The weather was perfect for hiking


We even saw a few critters...Eden wanted to make sure this caterpillar had plenty of leaves to eat. We also saw a deer, a rabbit, a lizard, and an armadillo....raccoons also tried to get into our garbage during the night, but that's another story (*wink*)

Sage had a nice nap on our hike.


Lots of pretty scenery and some nice away time so we could be "all together as a family" :)

Sounds like so much fun! I love getting away from the 'noise' of life!
