Backyard Camping!!

The boys wanted to camp out in the backyard Sunday night. They built a big fire and we all hung out outside for a bit. Of course, marshmallows were involved!! Here is the fire!



Papa staying warm.



John watching the fire. He looks deep in thought.








Momo being silly. Yes, it was chilly and yes she is wearing unmatched shorts and tee shirt........that is Momo!

Ian snuggled up by the fire.



Just the kids hanging out.


Sisters having fun.


Momo...I think the flash on the camera was making her squint!






the big boys....




Aaron helping Ian with a marshmallow!

Roasting marshmallows!











Ian was having trouble with his marshmallow because the flames were too hot on his face. The boys pulled a piece of wood out of the fire for him to roast his marshmallow over.






Monday morning, they decided to cook breakfast outside over the fire!! They made bacon, eggs and pancakes!








Here is Grandpa....he was happy to stay inside where it was warm to have his breakfast!!



Aaron and John spent Monday night in the tent as well, but we didn't get breakfast this morning. I think they will be sleeping inside tonight though since it is supposed to be in the 20's!! BRRRRRR
