Camping



I can vividly remember my worst nights of sleep (not including newborn stage). Most of them include camping. Uncomfortableness, cold, snorers, sharing a broken sleeping bag with a roommate (remember that, Sare?)... Our ward at church had a camp out last weekend. I joined for dinner, but left S. with two of the munchkins. I like my friends and wanted to keep them. I didn't want to torture them with a 4 month-old waking up. So, I hopped in the non-kid mobile and took a nice drive home listening to what I wanted to. I woke up about 3 am to a thunderstorm and dreamt the rest of the night about them coming home soaked (we have had the tent almost 8 years and never actually used it over night). They made it until the morning with Little Man only waking up at one point looking for Bunny. Oh, and S. discovered that he is longer than the tent. Looks like we'll need to buy another one for next year.


Meanwhile, I got to play with the Chubbers.

Look like they had fun...don't kids LOVE to play in tents? Mine do. As for sleeping...it's all about bringing an air mattress! And our sleeping bags zip together, so it's warm and cozy. Remember our FO ward campout? Good times!

I remember the F.O. ward camp out, Carrie! I think that's where the flames began to spark with Craig. Funny times! I agree too on the air mattress. Last camp out we took our aerobed. It was wonderful! I felt kind of guilty about not roughing it, but the good nights rest (minus the white trash neighbors) was well worth it!

Oh you added a picture of her! How adorable...and probably more chubbs than before, but I've got to download pics of my sumo wrestler! I'm having camera/computer difficulties and I'm irritated. Hey Jody! I want to see your blog...I can't! Can't wait to see you guys~! I'm coming 16th -30th.
