PEACE, HARMONY, AND COLEMAN

Sunday, September 30, 2007

Next weekend, Don is taking the girls camping with a YMCA dads and daughters group. So we had to go buy camping supplies.

THIS MEANS THAT I AM GOING TO BE ALONE FOR A WHOLE DAY ALL BY MYSELF! If anyone has any great ideas of what I should do, let me know. I am at a loss. At any rate, this post is not about that.

I have to confess, the closest I have come to buying camping supplies was buying a mess kit for Sarah to take on a Girl Scout cookout. And it was hard, I had no idea where to go. Luckily Don knew what he was doing from having gone on the Wild Animal Park overnight last year.

We bought a tent and Don put it up in the back yard just for practice. The kids have been out there all day. If we had known that a simple pile of tarp would have caused PEACE for a day, we would have bought one long ago.

The only glitches have been Becca getting naked a couple times (because she is pretending to be a bear and everyone knows that bears do not wear clothing)....

Holy cow, tents have come a long way! That looks awesome! Sleeping bags or Aero beds?
You need to put in a doggy door!

Sleeping bags and self inflating mattresses underneath...
