Father's Day Campout

Last night we tested out our REI Basecamp 4 tent in my parents' backyard. We learned that a. It takes k a long time to settle down before going to sleep in a tent; b. We should zip up the tent ALL of the way to avoid mosquitoes; and c. We need to buy sleeping mats (we had one air mattress, but k kept rolling off). It was still fun piling up a bunch of blankets and snuggling in the crisp air. We're looking forward to our first "real" campout next month.

    Are you going to get k her own sleeping bag/mat? Better make a check list for her, too.
