Jillie's 1st camping adventure



So, did I mention Mommy and Daddy took all five of us kids camping (yes, that would be tent camping) for an overnight?

Isn't Jillian adorable in her gap denims and white fallish turtle neck and her red goose leather hiking boots? After all when you are one and Mommy can still afford to dress you this way, you must take advantage of it! (um, shh! don't tell Jillie Mommy is an excellent shopper and gets most things at 75% off or better!)

Anywho! We got scrumciously filthy and no one cared, we ate way to much sugar in the form of toasted marshmellows and hot chocolate with whipped cream and it was okay. We played in the dirt, picked up nasty things off the ground and even tasted a few and it was still okay. Then we burnt the baked potatoes in the campfire and they still tasted good! We slept in two different tents and one of us even ended up in the car but that worked out too. Oh and then we also got to see stars, play with flashlights, take hikes, play on the playground, eat ice cream bars, and it was so fun! Daddy makes really good eggs and bacon and Mommy can sure mix up that quaker instant oatmeal with the best of them. . .we even had toast and juice!

You should try it sometime, it makes home look oh so good when you get back there!

Oh, that is adorable! And you are so brave to take five kids tent camping! But it sounds like you all had a wonderful time! :D

Hi, Kim, and thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. :-)

I'm supposed to go camping again Monday, Lord willing and the weather cooperates. We use a tent and cook over a fire or charcoal, so I pray we have good weather. I'll be on the lookout for some good pics while I'm gone.

I hope you're having a good weekend, my friend. God bless you and yours. :-)
