Camping BLISS!

We had our ward camp out just a few weeks ago. It was SO MUCH FUN! The boys were in absolute heaven. Saying that they love being outside is a complete understatement. They were so happy playing with all of their friends no fighting. Just happy happy boys... besides Kala's bloody nose right at the end. and man it was bloody. Poor kid. At least I got pictures right?! We roasted way too many marshmellows. Rolled in the dirt... never enough times. And got some much needed fresh air. Oh it was so nice out. Kala spent the majority of his time digging in the dirt with some trucks. Benson just walked. and walked. and walked around. chased some balls too.. but all consisted in continually moving around. Just like he always does. But he wasn't confined and oh he was so happy. It was just so much fun. We hadn't been camping as a family and we were quite nervous. We brought the pack'n'play for benson to sleep in and we zipped two sleeping bags for Kaulana, Kala and I to sleep in but Benson wouldn't let me lay him down so we all four slept together and it wasn't too bad! we're ready for another go at it! We know what we're asking Santa for this year! :)
