We decided to take a very last minute camping trip at nearby John Bryan this week. The weather was great for July, Micah had been begging to go, and, let's be honest, I love it it too! The boys and I got there early and set up the tent (they were great helpers!) and Dad joined us to help make dinner. Much to Micah's delight, Dada taught him how to roast his very own hot dog over the campfire (Ezra sat patiently at the table waiting to devour his food). After dinner and clean-up, we made s'mores (Ezra's first time eating one and he ditched the marshmallow in favor of the chocolate and graham cracker, haha!). Bed time got pushed back quite a bit. Despite begging to go to bed, we quickly learned that the boys had really just wanted to play in the tent... so after failed attempts at bedtime and a successful firefly hunt, the boys crashed when it got dark. The next morning we had breakfast, cleaned up camp, hiked, and then ate a picnic lunch before heading home for some very long naps! We'll definitely be going again... but maybe when it gets dark just a bit earlier? :)
