first camping trip

we headed out to george washington national forest this morning for the dude's first little 'ol camping trip!  we met up with grammie at her work and enjoyed her company for the evening.


the weather was perfect during the day.  not too hot, and not too cold.  we pitched our tents, hunted for some firewood, cooked some dogs on the fire and then enjoyed just hanging out in nature for awhile.  before it was time to hit the hay we heated up some s'mores.  i couldn't believe that this was the first time grammie and daddy had eaten them!  needless to say...everyone loved them!


so it got a little chilly at night (45 degrees!!  brrrrrrr!), but we were able to bundle up the dude and he slept through the night.  mommy...not so much!  mojo ended up waking up around 2am shivering, so i had to get her warm.  then around 3am there were a couple deer who decided to munch on some moss and grass RIGHT by our tent.  i could literally hear their teeth chomping right next to my head!  i think i got about 2 or 3 hours of sleep...but it was totally worth it.  we had a great time and the boy was sufficiently wiped!
