indoor campout!...

Sam has been talking for a while about wanting to take Luke camping in the backyard--when it gets warmer, of course. Well, then Luke has been reading "Curious George goes camping" and then he saw a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse show, where they all go camping. So I came up with the indoor campout, complete with a fire and a tent in the living room. So we set up our old tent from our college days and built a fire in the fireplace. Luke adored it! He especially loved running in and out of the tent and looking out the windows in the tent. And of course he thought marshmallows were the best thing ever--he ate 4!!

Good night!

Sam and Luke slept in the tent all night and I went upstairs and had the bed all to myself! Luke cannot wait to do it outside--in the spring!
