This past weekend, Brian took Caroline camping for the first time...well, that is, beyond our back yard. Saturday around lunch, Brian and Caroline loaded up the car and headed to Auburn to go camping at a state park. She had such a great time! Packing things up, she couldn't decide what she needed to take. I tried to help, but she still ended up with quite a random assortment. There was a playground that she played on, they roasted hot dogs and made smores and read lots of books. She was also very excited about the trail map that they got when they got to the state park. Brian said she kept calling it her "adventure map." Unfortunately, the campsites were quite close together and when it was time for them to go to bed the campers next to them was fairly loud and Caroline couldn't go to sleep, so about 10ish, Brian decided just to head back so they could get some sleep. As you will see in the picture, even when she fell asleep in the car, she wouldn't let go of her "adventure map." Brian was good to take some pictures for me which I have added below.

That is so cute! Clark would die to go camping.
ReplyDeleteCaroline lives for it! Plus, Brian loves it too, so it works out well for me! I use the other two as excuses not to go :-)
