Things were quiet around here for a few days- and this was because we were camping! The Cliff’s notes of our trip go like this:
- It rained
- The bugs came
- We worried
- It was overcast
- We played
- We ate too much
- The bugs ate us
- It was sunny
- We played
- The bugs were full and left us alone for a little while
- We came home
That’s a good story, isn’t it?
Yes, we’re dotted with little red welts from the World’s Jerkiest Mosquitoes, but aside from that, it was a great trip! The girls played with friends and we chatted with grown-ups around the fire, and now we’re home… sprawled all over the soft landing pads in our house… like sloths. Sloths with dirt on their faces. One little sloth may still be in her pyjamas. And it’s 1:30 in the afternoon.
But aside from my riveting camping story, I have other news: there’s a giveaway happening on this blog!

Sounds like you had an eventful camping trip. You worried, huh? About what? I can’t wait to hear more.
Tara
Oh – we worried about the weather. And occasionally, we worried about what sort of monsters our children would wake up to be, as they went to bed SO late! But none of the worries were needed – thank goodness!

I am worried about the weather too Tara…. worried we have our west coast summer at the end of March this year and that it isn’t coming back! Hope I am wrong:)
Tara
It isn’t very warm out, is it? It’s hard to believe that it’s actually summer!
