We went camping over the weekend and had a wonderful time. We went back in June but that trip was not as successful; we were sleeping in a tent that time and this time were in a trailer. Trailer+Carter=Better Sleep for all of us!
Carter had to bring his"Lightening McQueen" and "Tow Mater" on our camping trip and was sad when we closed up the trailer to come home. We had a great time....but there was One camping Time-Out. We improvise when necessary!
Uncle Dave was kind enough to take a turn in the rock throwing and spent over 30 minutes down there with Carter until we came to rescue him.
Carter was obsessed with throwing rocks in the river and we all took several turns going to the river.
Matching Clothing is VERY optional while camping in our family.....And having a dirty face and/or dirty hands is a requirement.
Carter roasted his first marshmallow and loved being near the fire. He refused to eat the cooked marshmallow but enjoyed many "raw" marshmallows.

Since we've been home Carter asks at least 10 times a day if we can get the trailer and go camping. He's hooked. After I told him that we couldn't go camping tonight, he asked to sleep in the trailer. After that was denied, he asked to sleep in the tent. I guess we'll need to squeeze another camping trip in to the last of our summer. We love Camping!

The camping timeout is hilarious! I love the location for it! We would have to do the same thing. I've had to put kids in timeout on Walmart shelves before.... Timeouts in the wild reminds me of the Office... "In the wild, there is no health care. Oh, I hurt my leg, I can't run. A lion eats me, I'm dead. No wait, I AM the lion."
Wish we lived closer so we could all go camping together. Looks like so much fun. Mitchell would love to take a "throwing rocks" shift with Carter. He could do that all day. And they would probably find some variation of "high towers" at a campground.
I want to go camping! I tried to talk Dad into it for our anniversary. He preferred a bed and breakfast. What do you think? Can we go?
