We actually survived our first camping trip: 3 nights in the wilderness! I am so glad James finally gave in to getting an air mattress. He wasn't convinced that the new ones wont leave his butt on the ground in the morning. However, one night with ours and he is now hooked. We had a blast hanging out with the family all weekend long. We went for a ride on the scanoe, lots of hikes, spent hours in the sand by the lake, ate lots of delicious treats, and laughed constantly. Luckily there were no bugs! James was also sweet enough to get me honey bucket. That saved me at night because I was not about to hike to the bathrooms every hour in pitch blackness and freezing coldness. One night he woke up saying, "whats that noise, it sounds like a flash flood!" I was laughing so hard I almost tipped over. When we got home we are all filthy, so I made all 3 of us get in the shower before doing anything (yes number 3 means sugar). That may sound a little weird, but believe me, it was necisarry!
