We had the joy of camping out during the Highland steak bbq yet again this year. Our camp site was right beside the playground which make the kids very happy. Glen was much more interested in the mulch than the swings and the slides. But whatever makes you happy...
A favorite of all was the creek, as always!
Grace started to make a few dams in the creek, but mostly had fun exploring.
Glen just liked looking under rocks and exploring. In other words, they just liked getting dirty :)
We took the short "hike" up to the pond. Grace liked looking out over it from the dock.
Glen just sat on the edge as she waited to go back to our campsite.
Back at our campsite in the evening we started to find many fireflies. In the picture above you can see the firefly on Grace's hand.
Glen also had a firefly on his leg.
With a couple of other kids they decided to begin to catch the fireflies in a jug. You can see one firefly that is lit up at the bottom on the jug in this picture. There were many other bugs in that jug though.
Glen just liked having the fireflies on his arms and legs. None of the bugs that he had ever made it into the jug.
After a very late night of playing with fireflies, what is the best breakfast? If you are Grace the answer would be SMORES! of course! Here she is, just woke up and toasting her marshmallow.
Glen decided to go a bit healthier and have a bagel and cream cheese. But look at that face, that is the face of a successful camping trip! What fun!
