My Backyardigans

What's not to love about camping? Particularly when it's 20 feet from your house, dinner is cooked by mom and you get to pack your own backpack. 

Roughing it... not quite. But fun nevertheless. I made s'mores on the stove for them and we are staying in communication via walkie talkie. If you think it's hard to make out what Abe is saying on a normal day, just try it thru a static-y toy contraption. "Helwo? Helwo? Tan u hay meh??"

It's surprisingly cool and should be in the low 50s by morning. Maybe I'll bring out warm mugs of hot chocolate...

Update: so I just realized I neglected to mention mike is spending the night with them in the tent. When I read this over it sounded like I was just letting Anna and Abe out for their own little camp out. Ha!

I love this - so much fun! And a quiet night inside for mom, too - win/win for everyone!
