Backyard camping

One of the joys of Fall is that Dad is willing to camp in the back yard 
since the temperature isn't so hot and it's not humid!  
Everyone setting up the tent
Annie, Jared, and Kathleen exploring the tent
James figuring out grass on bare feet!
Dad reading a nighttime story to Annie and Jared

Kathleen, David and Peter ready for the night.

The campout was successful.  In the end, Kathleen joined James and I in the house, 
but Annie, Jared, David and Peter all made it through the night!

What a fun tradition! I never considered camping a falltime activity... Too cold here!

What about Michael? Did he make it through the night? James reminds me of when your David was a baby. They look so similar -- that mouth!

hey, I miss camping in the backyard! Fun times.

That brings back memories of camping with Michael and the girls in our backyard - of course, we had a smaller tent, and it was right outside our bedroom window! But everything was fine as long as they had a light to read!
