camping out in the great outdoors

back in october, danny had a three day weekend and he came home from work feeling extra adventurous. though it was chilly outside, he and the kids went to work setting up the tent and preparing the fire pit (for the first time!) for our backyard campout. 

we roasted hot dogs, ate lots of chips, watched tarzan out in the tent, and fell asleep with at least 20 blankets on top of the four of us.

thanks to my growing belly, i was only able to make it on the hard, frozen ground until 4 a.m. (thank goodness i could run inside to my warm, soft bed in the middle of the night!) but the rest of the clan made it all night long!
