Rugged camping







DJ and Daddy did some great camping this past weekend in celebration of DJ's 6th birthday. Their spot was well-chosen with few bumps on the ground. They camped beside a beautiful stream full of fish and had lovely pine trees full of birds (even snakes) surrounding their campsite. Their adventurous evening (watching a movie about cars) ended with S'mores. The marshmallows roasted nicely for about 30 seconds before removing from the microwave. I had a lovely evening talking on the phone to my Grandma and doing my Walmart run while my boys braved a winter camp-out.

We've put up tents in the house so many times for "camping." The kids enjoy making hotdogs and s'mores in the fireplace--using the microwave for a bit of help sometimes. I should do it for the two little girls one of these months...

What a perfectly splendid evening! My kids have been begging me to "camp out" in front of our fireplace ever since we moved in!
