We spent a fabulous four-day weekend camping in Yosemite — it was the boys’ second time camping and they had as much fun as the first time, which is to say, A LOT!
Our day started early on Thursday, I think our oldest could have used a couple more hours’ worth of sleep 😀
Our youngest got right into the spirit of the thing and started carrying manly amounts of fire wood:
He also loved helping daddy set up our tent:
Dinner that first evening was basic camping goodness:
With one twist:
Dear auntie L. had a birthday so we got her favorite cake – German chocolate!!!
Friday was Dirt Day. Or Filthy Friday. Or Messy Monkey Day. Or something.
I swear I wiped them down about 56 times that day, but five seconds later they were filthy again.
It was a losing battle.
But the food was awesome.
Breakfast rocked — hot and fluffy pancakes, yummy fresh fruit, and bacon, lovely bacon.
Dinner was delicious flank steak, asparagus, salad, and baked potato (I didn’t have one).
The squirrels were in love with our food:
Even diving into the trash can to retrieve bits of it!
Our friend K made the most stunning, the most amazing (yes, I love MasterChef!) the most refreshing gazpacho. Seriously, it took all my willpower not to grab her plastic container and run with it into the woods:
But the tracker jacke–, I mean, the wasps, were kinda scary.
Lovely port.
Don’t remember much after this shot ;D
More camping adventures later this week!
