Who doesn't like sleeping on rocks in the freezing cold with two year old twin boys who sleep in cages at home to make sure the animals don't escape, I mean to give them a sense of security and warmth and who have no clue on how to sleep outside of that cage (although they caught on pretty quickly...an hour and a half...not bad). Can you think of anything more fun than waking every hour with one side of your body dead asleep, numb as can be, tingling and stiff. Let me brainstorm that one; root canal, colonoscopy, working as a preschool teacher with a massive hangover, the options are endless.
Okay now for the fantastic part, the boys loved it, although they asked to sit in the truck the morning after the nightmare ended as we packed up, so they weren't exactly super into the roughing it, although I think they will warm up to it. Back to.... it was great, we hiked, we threw rocks into the sound (a favorite past time), we played with bugs, birds, dirt, sticks, Zeb and Zane played with their babies in the tent and the dirt, we tormented Bear by letting Zane pull him around all afternoon, when really all he wanted was to hang out at camp looking for his next hot dog opportunity, we roasted marshmallows, hot dogs, and we sat by the fire that Jamie built!!!
It was fabulous!!!
We are all going to love camping after we get mats to sleep on and some really good sleeping bags!
Pictures to come as we responsibly left the camera at home and had to use our cellphones.
