A Camping We Will Go...


     Okay, so maybe we didn't go camping in the traditonal terms of the word.  But we bought a tent and packed up our things for an overnight camping adventure out at my aunt's house.  We spent Saturday afternoon out at her house and enjoyed a little fishing and the kids were able to run free around the yard.  Again, I'm not sure you can really call it fishing.  We didn't get any bait until late in the evening, but I did get some practice casting in as it has been a really really long time since I have gone fishing.  Oh and even though we didn't have any bait, Mikayla did catch her first fish!  Well after a fun afternoon we pitched our tent and got ready to spend a chilly night in the great outdoors.  It was definitely a chilly night, but I can say that we made it through our first family camping trip.  Yay!  We are looking forward to the weather getting warmer and you can bet there will be more camping in our future.  Maybe we will actually venture out to do some "real" camping.  Until then I will continue to plan a backyard campout for our kids.

Camping was so exhausting.
