Camping

We were invited to camp out with friends last weekend.  By the time Friday came around, everyone in our group canceled.  We decided to go anyway.  I have mixed feelings about camping.  I don't mind the dirt, work, and campfire food, but I do mind the the lack of sleep.  Emmy was not feeling well that night, so after several hours of consoling a fussy baby, I took her home at 1:30 am.  Surprisingly, everyone was still asleep when we came back to the campsite at 7 am!

The best part of our family night was allowing David stay up late with us to watch the stars.  I love how his 8 year old mind works in such a setting- such big ideas and questions about the mysteries of the universe.
