Camping

We used another of our Adventure coupons and went camping. We ended up going with Brian's family and it was fun to spend time with them. WE began by setting up the tent. All of the kids helped. 




Then we played lots and lots of games. 
We roasted hot dogs for dinner and marshmallows for dessert.
And we roasted Starburst too. If you have never had them you need to try it. Yum!
Then we settled won for the night. The kids were so excited to sleep in the tent.

The next morning we were the first ones awake. Brian got the fire going and we stayed warm around it. Then we wanted to make hot cocoa but didn't have a pot to heat water. So Brian rinsed out some soda cans, filled them and put them in the fire.
When the water was warm he carefully poured the water into the cups using a roasting stick and our fire poking stick.
And we enjoyed our cocoa with giant marshmallows. It warmed us from the inside out.




We had a lot of fun, and enjoyed this final grand adventure of summer.
