Tent Camping . . . What's That?

We just took an out of the blue overnight trip to Palomar Mountain with the Latulippes. This was our first tent camping experience as a family, and it was a great learning experience. Lesson one for next time: leave Baby Girl at Grandma's house! Despite the "challenges" of camping in a tent. It was all worth it.

The view looking up from inside our tent was great!

We raced to put up the tents and unpack the trucks before sundown. Our tents were so gigantic that they didn't fit in the camping pads!

The girls rock climbed at the edge of our campsite


Mr. Blue Eyes practiced his trademark funny faces

Emmy won the dirtiest kid contest!

Then she tried to keep up with the big guys as they hiked the trail to Doane Pond.

The boys got to use their Rocket Fishing Rods for the first time with hooks and bait.
