After reading the King's blog, I'm thankful we attempted camping in a much safer(those raccoons could have been rabid!) environment...a friend's backyard. We've wanted to go camping with the kiddos for quite a while, but weren't sure how they would handle the great outdoors. We decided to try it out in the Marshal's backyard. We set up three tents and hoped for the best. After a great grilled out supper and birthday dessert for Charis, we sat around the most wonderful campfire a subdivision could have! We all decided s'mores were out of the question due to the rich dessert and sent the kids to bed...in one tent! We hoped they would settle down and go to sleep. Fat chance! We let them giggle, wrestle, and get really sweaty before we sent each kid to their own tent. They each had a parent with whom to spend the night. I'm not sure how Andy fit into the child's two-man pup tent, but it actually went surprisingly well! I think we're ready to try the real thing!
