summer camping

Memorial weekend we set off on a camping adventure with two other couples, a full car, and a one year old boy. It had been two years since we've camped and we've obviously never taken a baby with us.

We spent the three days sitting around a fire, roasting s'mores, talking, watching Johan eat dirt and sticks, taking walks, wading in a lake, and spending time relaxing with friends. The only down side was deciding to leave early to avoid a big storm. We made it out just in time.
Johan definitely enjoyed camping! He hardly slept he was so excited to be outside for days on end! Needless to say, Bernard and I needed some recovery time when we came back home.

All around, it was a great time! We're looking forward to more camping trips this summer.

Johan, don't you think that watermelon is a little big for you?

YUM! That was good, Mom!

Bernard & Johan in our favorite way to carry Johan around - the backpack.

Johan has found a great attachment to anything electronic, including my cell phone and the camera. Like Father like son.
