Camping Out - City Syle (Not exactly roughing it)

Our community recreation center hosted a family campout night at the park. Jacob and Michael had a great time pitching the tent and sleeping out. The rec. center had the Wild Animal Park bring animals, they provided a BBQ hot dog dinner, activities and crafts in the center, and then they showed E.T. on a giant screen on the field at dark. It was Jacob's first camping trip and it has inspired us to book a weekend camping in the mountains.

Getting the poles ready!

Put it right there Jacob!

Check out our campsite!

Jacob had a great night in his new sleeping bag and tent!

Awesome! Tell Jacob to bring the tent to Costa Rica and we can set him up in our the backyard. It does rain at night though, so he would have to sleep in a rain suit....It´s a jungle out there! See you soon.
