Full Moon "camp out"

Two months ago, the girls persuaded me to buy a rather large 6 man tent. Off and on since then they've asked me to set it up. Friday I finally set the tent up for the kids to play in during the day. I wasn't surprised with what came next....the begging to camp out in the yard. It was the perfect night with the full moon and clear sky so a camp out we did have. Zig thought we were quite funny as he made his way to our nice cozy bed, inside.

We had a fun time all snuggled up together. We barely took up a corner of the 6 man tent. We watched the airplanes fly over and the kids took turns making scary faces and sounds. Zig made pathetic attempts to scare us and the kids were like "Dad, we know it's you!" The quality of sleep for me...not so good. The only thing comfortable about the night was my cashmere socks :)! Rollin looked a bit tired when Zig carried him out this morning, but otherwise, everyone seems rested. I guess we'll have to take ourselves on a little camping trip very soon. Maybe when Mom is here? She's always up for anything!
