Campout at the Robbins

Stephen and his boys invited us to join them for a campout in the back yard a few weekends ago. It was a lot of fun, but not much sleep. We started with a very rugged hot dog dinner, with improvised buns. Then we went for rides in the cart on Stephen's bike. That was fun but tiring for me and Stephen. We hit the playground and then finished off the night with a campfire. We ate marshmallows and popcorn while sitting around the campfire and playing with flashlights. Then Ben reminded me that it was dark and he was ready for bed.

We hit the tent and the boys commenced playing and talking to each other for the next two hours. You pretty much expect this to happen on campouts though. Finally around 11 they fell asleep and all was well, until...

5:09 am the birds start chirping right over our heads!!!

The boys even agreed it was too early, but no one could sleep through all the chirping. So we got up, packed up the tents, ate some Cinnamon rolls and headed home.

Thanks for letting us join you for some good memories Ryan and Joshua.
