Camp Out

I realize my posts are way overdue, but none-the-less, I'll try to catch up in the next few days. (Blame it on waiting a LONG time to upload photos!)

During our last track-out, Mark decided to seize the opportunity and have his first camp-out with the girls...in the backyard. In the middle of the afternoon, he pitched the tent and began preparations for a night under the stars.

At dusk, Mark stoked the fire pit to begin the "adventure" with a favorite pasttime...roasting marshmallows.

Once the girls and Mark settled in the tent, I retired to our air-conditioned house for a restful night's sleep.

I was sure one of the girls would retreat indoors an hour into the camp-out. Much to my surprise, they both slept peacefully throughout the entire night until 6am. Must be they have their father's camping genes.

Mark treated them to McDonald's for breakfast, eaten in the tent. Looks like there may be more camping expeditions in the future!
