Spring is here! And that means camping!



Yesterday, at about 4pm, Joshua heard the word camping, and thought, "why not?"  So, he loaded the car and took the kids to a nearby campsite.  Treston and I came up later after I finished my monthly cook-a-thon. 






The campsite was just beautiful!  It was only 15 minutes from the house!  It was not very crowded and we loved hearing the sound of a small stream running right behind our tent.



 This is him cooking pancakes in the morning.




The weather was beautiful during the day.  The temp dropped to the upper 30s at night...brrrr.  Luckily, I was the only one that was cold.  The kids were very well bundled and slept great.  Even Treston was as snug as bug, he slept in his coat!

I love the pic of Treston in his seat! He is such a cutie! You guys are so brave going camping this early! We still haven't taken Braelyn camping yet, but have a trip planned in July. She is so crazy busy that I am a little nervous about it. It looks like you guys had a great time!
p.S. Your opening picture is the cutest thing ever! You always have been creative with photos.
