Glamping
This past week I celebrated my birthday in my favorite way, by going camping with my family.
It was a perfect vacation – a lovely camp spot, perfect weather, and the best company a girl could hope for. We fished, read, played card games, took pictures, and napped in the hammock.
For my birthday, one of my dearest friends gave me a copy of Glamping with MaryJane
For now I am as happy as can be with our awesome tent. It may be heavy, but it is very comfortable and wonderfully sturdy. We’ve camped in it in big thunderstorms, rain, even snow, and wind. It has never failed us once and has always kept us dry and happy.
One of our other favorite camping accessories is our eno double nest hammock
Since it is very wide and can hold up to 400 lbs, naps often get crashed by little visitors.
This is one of my favorite pictures of my husband and girls, taken last year on my birthday camping trip.
One more in the hammock… my girls got a little fancy with the settings on the camera and took a few cool pics…
We are counting our lucky stars to live in such a beautiful state.
We were no sooner home when the kids were planning our next camping trip. Let me get through the pile of laundry first my dears. Then we can talk about it.
