This past weekend we headed to the woods and went camping. It's been one of those things we've talked about for years - seriouly like 5! I'm so glad we were finally able to go.
We were a little discouraged once we realized we had to hike-in the the campsite - with TONS & TONS of stuff. Definitely not prepared. And no running water/toilets is always a fun surprise. It seemed like the rest of the day we couldn't cool off. Except for me - I'm always cold. Then I realized it won't be a camping trip if everything went as planned. And days later - it's looking back and being able to laugh at the hardaches that makes the trip really fun.
Tanner didn't waste any time kickin' back and relaxing.

An endless supply of mud/dirt/rocks can keep him occupied for hours. This time I didn't mind cause it wasn't my backyard they were tearing apart.
They were constantly trying to escape to the lake - which was especially worrisome.
He also tried to win over the group of 12+ tween girls having a sleepover next to us. He picked flowers just for them - and was constantly picking them.
Most of Tanner's time was spent gathering random leaves/sticks - just like this collection.
Luckily, he didn't stumble across any poison ivy.
One of my favorites - FOOD! Seriously, it's always better when you have to work for it. Tin foil dinners, S'mores, and eggs/sausage - tastes SO much better when you're camping. I also think I downed a whole bag of Doritos waiting for food to cook...but that's another story.
Tanner had fun playing with his two favorite friends - Sarah and Avery. Really the best part is always the company. Thanks!
