"You are down by ONE, Boy!" ~ The Genie from the movie Aladdin

We are down a kid. The ward had a campout tonight and we did go, but we didn't stay to camp. We thought about it and were planning on it, but this week got all crazy. Ryan's car had problems and was out of commission for a couple of days, which took extra time to fix and now Ryan feels like he's behind on the weekend even though it's barely started. Plus, he never had time to get the camping stuff out and we hadn't figured out what to do with the dog... so, we just went for the evening festivities, had fun, stayed late, and then came home. It's local though, on a ward member's property, and it was a lot of fun while we were there! I hope we do it again next year because I think everyone had a great time. We would even stay next time. lol

Acadia did stay, however. Our neighbors invited her to stay with them in their tent trailer. It's the perfect night to camp - cool enough that you want to have a campfire and get all snug in your sleeping bag, but not so cold that it's unpleasant. After a couple of days with cloudy/rainy weather, today was clear and the night sky was mostly clear so you could see some stars. I'm sure she'll have fun staying up late, roasting more marshmallows, and giggling with her friends. I'll enjoy sleeping in my comfy bed. :)
