Camping and Baseball

Okay, these are backwards but I'm too lazy to switch them. We finally took the kids camping with the tent we bought 2 years ago. Granted it was only 20 minutes from our house, but we slept in the tent, in the woods, so we're counting it. We locked Grace in the tent with the boys while we took everything down. Much easier and less messy since she scoots around on her bum to get everywhere.
Our camp stove was leaking and no good for this trip, but luckily we were planning on hot dogs for dinner and the boys were beyond thrilled to get to roast them on sticks.
The boys so excited the tent was up. We didn't even do anything that exciting but they kept saying "this is our first time camping," "this is our first time making smores while camping," or some other thing it was the first time we had done...while camping.
We wandered around the campground, and this was Grace within 5 minutes of the start of our walk.
I think this was Sunday afternoon. I just thought it was cute she fell asleep with a cell phone in hand. She loves to press the buttons and watch them light up and beep, so we gave her an old one.
Last week our builder took anyone in our neighborhood who wanted to go to a baseball game. We of course took him up on the free entertainment.
Ready for the pitch. He actually understood a little of what was going on which was fun.
Grace looking super cute in the track suit Brandon knew she had to have.

Camping is so much fun. We finally started this summer and have been at least every other weekend.

We have been dying to go camping, I'm a little jealous that you guys went! It looks like the kids had fun!

Was that a Rainier's game that you went to? We went to one last year and thought it was more fun than going to see the Mariners :)They played better then then Mariners anyway!

woah! did you just do the last 3 posts,because somehow I hadn't seen them?! First, love the kids pictures, especially Kyle's poses. Next, the picture of grace in her tutu with the birthday hat is hilarious. Last, I'm so proud of you taking your first camping trip! Looked like the boys had a blast.
