The first camping trip of the summer was a fabulous success. I want to remember…
… when we pulled into the campground and The Munchkin said, “Is this Dinky Cweek?”
… The Fraggle aquired a whole new color – dirt.
… we played at the creek in the icy water and the warm sun.
… s’mores! (we also tried a new campfire treat. It was way yummy and definitely a new tradition for this family. Check it out here.)
… glow stick Ninja with the Bigs.
… waking at sunrise to the happy crew and eating breakfast in the cold morning air.
… all the happiness of just being together.
… cramming back into the car to go home.
As good as it was to get home and take a hot bath and sleep in my cozy bed, I can’t wait until our next camping trip! Oh, and I almost knit an entire sock while we were out, too! See?
That’s my boring sock formula with sport weight on size 3. The jury is still out on if I like it or not… The yarn, however, is awesome! It is Family Pendragon Spellbound Limited Edition Sport in the May 2012 Club colorway, Heartwood with teal trim. love(1000)
Those are great pictures!! I love all the kids in one tent and then all of them in the car too. It is inspiring! Husband wants to camp….but I am reluctant. We live in the middle of nowhere anyway. 😉
Are the heels the Tomato Heels from Cat Bordhi?
Yes, they are. I love those! However, I think maybe I should have done an extra wedge. Working with sport weight changes things.
