The Big Backyard Campout was just this past Saturday and since we get Capture California points for doing the activity AND we still had all of our camping stuff ready to go, we (or rather I) decided it would be a fun thing to do.
Finley was dying to see Dylan, so we invited him over. He didn’t want to spend the night without his mom, but he and Cleo stayed for dinner, s’mores, and tent set-up.
Our strawberry plants are producing tons! We collected nearly a pint in the morning and there were still some left to be found in the evening! The kids are good at spotting them!
It isn’t camping without the s’mores!
Once it got dark, the kids and I climbed in…
My spot is right between Cameron’s and Chloe’s heads!
Chloe is an old pro at camping already!
Here are the kids, bright and early the next morning!
Dylan loved camping in our backyard so much, he wanted to sleep in there again last night (after a long day of 2 birthday parties and swimming lessons!)! I managed to persuade him that it would be a good idea to sleep indoors, but I honestly don’t know how long I’ll be able to stave him off. I’m glad he likes camping, but ooooh boy is it tough on my back (air mattress doesn’t fit in the small tent!)!
