Lane and Clint spent their first night out in the backyard in a tent last night! Lane was super excited to "camp". Clint and Lane set up the tent late yesterday afternoon to get things started.
Marlee helped a little and was very interested in the tent once it was set up.
Lane and Marlee were both ready to move in for the night. They had the best time playing in the tent while we got our picnic together.
We had our dinner outside on a picnic blanket by the tent.
And after dinner we made a little campfire to roast marshmallows.
Lane's face doesn't look like it, but our smores were delicious!
Marlee loved hers too!
After we had our treats we sat by the campfire and Lane sang us a few songs while playing his "drum". Marlee tried to sing along every few words.
About 9 pm the girls headed inside to sleep in our comfy beds. Lane was sooo excited to finally get to be in the tent alone with Dad. They both took out a flashlight and Lane took out books for them to read together including the boys favorite book that inspired the camp out "A Camping Spree with Mr. McGee."
I left the camera with Clint, he said Lane loved reading with his flashlight.
The boys lasted outside until 1:15 am. The wind chimes finally got to Clint. I think they both had so much fun that another camp out, with the windchimes down, is in their future!
They both took a great nap this afternoon! Even Murphy was worn out!
