The Girls Are Going Camping

In early August, the girls will be going on their very first "camping trip". They will be joining their aunt and uncle at a "family camping night" hosted by the city. In preparation, the girls picked out their own sleeping bags. They are so excited that they have been unrolling their sleeping bags, pretending to sleep in them, a rolling them back up almost daily...Who knows, if this overnight experience goes well, perhaps we will truly take them camping one night...I have very fond memories of going camping with my family growing up; setting up the tents, building a fire with our father, roasting marshmallows, using flashlights, and telling not-so-scary ghost stories...If only I could convince my husband to give up the comforts of our house for a night or two...
