To end the summer we went camping with the Changs. This the first time for the kids to sleep outdoors and enjoy what nature has to offer. So we decided to go as far away from home as we can, 5 miles (the closest camping ground), to go camping because according Abbey "in case there's an emergency". We had a really good time.
See how helpful the kids are with setting up the tents? They're learning quite a bit.
The moms are feeding the kids as the tents are getting setup and logs are collected for the bonfire.
Some glow in the darks and some fun by Mr. Clayton.
How romantic: dinner outdoors with nature and what it has to offer.
Roasting marshmallows...so cool and sweet.
Looks like mom's asleep and Cayleigh needs some company.
Poor Clayton, he looks abandoned or scared.
Thanks to the Tsai's, we borrowed a two room tent. It's huge! can fit two king size beds in there.
Future Geologists at work.
Studying and collecting different types of rocks very carefully.
Mama plays with Cayleigh and both enjoying each other's company immensely.
A late more nap. Just so calm and peaceful in the woods.
Look closely at the right foot of Charlotte's foot, there's a beautiful white caterpillar that the kids are observing.
The story behind this photo was that Brennan and Clayton surrounded the area where the caterpillar was and Charlotte wanted a look. So she went around them to get a close look, so close that she just stepped right on the insect. The white is the caterpillar and the greenish/blackish next to it is, you know the rest of the caterpillar. We love nature.
