The "Great" Outdoors

Awww...our first camping trip as a family. Look how happy we were...until 2 AM when Kellyn woke up screaming. Luckily we were close to my parents house. After unsuccessful attempts to sooth her, we packed up and went to Grandma and Grandpa's house at 3 AM.
I am officially not a fan of camping.
Kellyn and I read this book over and over while daddy packed up the tent.
I was reading loudly hoping to scare off any wild animals
that might have wanted to eat daddy in the dark.

Jared really wasn't mad--he was just posing for the picture.
He was still my ever patient, calm, level headed husband.
I really was this tired.

And so was Kellyn.

Our first camping trip wasn't so bad. Since Grant is so young I was able to nurse him back to sleep. But he did wake up screaming in the middle of the night a few times. It definitely made for a long night. So glad you guys were close to grandma and grandpa's.

been there, done that. The camping answer is...hotel at night, camp during the day. You're awesome for trying! She's so cute!!
