camping

This summer we went camping in Yellowstone. Zoe was so excited to go camping. Every day for about a month before we went she would ask if we were going camping yet. And then she would tell me that when we camp we sleep in the tent trailer. When we got to our campsite and got set up she kept asking if we were camping yet. I would tell her that we were camping and she would tell me no because we weren't sleeping in the tent trailer. It took me the whole time we were camping to try and convince her we were still camping even if we weren't asleep. She slept so good while we were camping. It's a pity she doesn't sleep that well in her own bed.

I don't know if you can see it but her face is just covered in dirt. Luckily Grandma had a bathtub in her trailer.

Arleigh sure enjoyed being out and playing with everybody. She was also covered in dirt the whole time we were camping.

I don't really know what they were doing, but they sure liked sitting on Grandma and Grandpa's steps to their trailer.

We had many picnics while we were in Yellowstone. This one was fun because there was a huge rock to play on. The girls love rocks.

The last day we were there Zoe ran around and gathered up all the rocks that she could and put them in her pockets. She had so many rocks that her pants started to fall down. I then told her that she could only take home one rock and she started to cry. Grandma came to the rescue and gave Zoe a baggy to put all her rocks in. Zoe got to take all her rocks home. She was so happy. And yes we have a bag of rocks sitting in a box in her room.

Arleigh also had to bring a rock home. Did I mention my girls like rocks?

We had a lot of fun camping with Ben's family. I hope we can do it again next year.
