Camping

This weekend we did a trial run of all our new car camping equipment. We are going to Yellowstone next week and have bought a lot of new supplies. We tested them out and it was a good thing, there are some things that we are still missing. We have never done much car camping, we have always gone backpacking so this will be a new adventure for us. We had a good time and had a great spot. The small creek was running really fast right behind us so we got to fall asleep to the sound of running water. I was surprised at how well the girls slept. I thought they would have more trouble. We only stayed one night and came home early so we could be sure to make it to the ward birthday party and now we can't wait for next week.

Mallorie and Lola loved "their bedroom". We have two tents that zip together.

We had bacon and eggs for breakfast.

This is Abby trying to escape from the tent. The only place she could be set down was in the tent because she was very facinated by the campfire and I have a thing about her not falling into the fire pit, especially when there is a fire in it.

Yeah that fire can be a little troublesome.

That is good - to keep the small one out of the fire pit - bad for the skin. You will have an awesome trip and we will have LOTS of adventures when you get back!

I can't believe that you would zip your baby in the tent!!!
