Camping in the Backyard

Brian had the idea to camp in the back yard tonight. So he set up the tent and we cooked dinner out on the fire. Since it took us a while to get things going the girls dinned on a hot dog while the 'real' dinner was cooking.

Dinner consisted of corn, campfire stew and of course s'mores. Yummy.

Here are the girls toasting their marshmallows for the awaiting graham crackers and chocolate. A must.

And now bed time, notice there is no room for mommy. I opted to sleep inside with Cara. Too hot!

See Kendall jumping up and down inside the tent? They weren't going to sleep anytime soon. Actually, Kendall came inside about 10:00pm to sleep in her bed. Hopefully, after a few more practice runs the girls will be ready to camp for real.
