Saturday afternoon I was outside with the kiddos just relishing in this beautiful weather we have been having!
It was then that the thought came to me that we should camp out that night.
Camping out here at Twin Oaks this summer has been a goal Blake and I have had!
I told Blake my idea, he agreed, and then we told the kiddos and texted Grant and Addie to let them know too!
It was the PERFECT weather for a camp out!
The kiddos set up the tent for us!
The evening started with a huge meal and then some games.
Blake got the fire going, handed out the glow sticks he bought for this very reason, and the games continued in the dark!
The boys covered themselves and their frisbees in glow sticks and played frisbee in the dark.
It was hilarious!
We all finally crawled into that tent, including Ruby, and giggled and talked until well after 11 p.m.!
I LOVE CAMP OUTS!!
Especially in the early morning when I wake up to all of this!!
The plan for the morning was to make breakfast over the fire and just BE. TOGETHER.
Nothing better than a good plan coming to fruition!!
After breakfast we sat outside for HOURS.
Just being together, remember?!
On such a beautiful day!
Pretty soon it was time to clean everything up, have a late lunch, and get some sleepy kiddos (and a pup!) a good nap!
I have an amazing clean-up crew!
There were more of us napping Sunday afternoon than not!
We are talking about squeezing one more camp out in before summer is over!
Our calendar is PACKED – so time will tell!!
My heart is still SO full from our time together this weekend!
First camp out at Twin Oaks, you were a HIT!!
Looking forward to many, many more, Lord willing!!!
