Camp Gardner






On Friday night we decided to have a camping excursion to the backyard. The girls helped Daddy set up the tent (or as Courtney called it the ChooChoo Train) We played Croquet, had smores by the fire then the girls spent most of the night fascinated with their flashlights. Its the simple little things that they like so much. I think Britt played all weekend with a flashlight and a umbrella. Daddy passed out after 10 minutes of laying down in the tent. Mommy lasted until about 12:00 until she went inside for the A/C and a comfy bed. The rain and thunder came about 4:00 so the rest of us headed inside. We bought doughnuts for breakfast so Britt thought it was time to eat at 4:30, fortunately she went back to bed. All in all it was a great night and will occur more often.

Gardner, we were studying your camping pictures. Was that the last Mojito by the red chair in the third picture? (You better not have drank it while we are gone)
