~Camping in the Yard~

So I have a hard time sitting still so I decided that our family was going to head to the reservoir and roast hotdogs then play in the water! So we headed up and the kids were in heaven when they saw the water! They immediately started throwing rocks and finding bugs!
Trying to find a flat rock for Dad to skip!
Carter looking for crawdads!
After they had some fun by the water it was time to eat! Gotta love some brats and hotdogs, McKay and I love brats so those were for us!
Our make shift kitchen!

Baylee chasing Carterman!
Finally caught up to him...
...only for him to ditch her again!
After the sun started  to set we got swarmed with mosquitos! You can't see them very well in this picture but Carter is swatting them and they were everywhere! 
So we packed up quickly and headed out of there but made sure to stop and let Dad and Carter go through the tunnel/cave!
Hiking up to the opening!
About to go through!
Baylee and Mom waiting at the bottom for the boys!
After we got home McKay decided we were going to set up our tent and sleep outside! Carter was stoked!
Setting up the tent in the dark!
Ready to get the party started!
So I am a bit of a girl I guess you would say and we blew up our air mattresses! They filled our tent side to side and my kids thought it was one big bounce house!
Carter and Baylee jumping around which made it hard for her to drink her bottle!
Dad and Carter shared a bed!
Mom and Baylee sharing a bed!
The kids were so excited that it took forever for them to calm down and fall to sleep! Also Baylee hates blankets so about 3 am she was freezing because it got pretty cold that night so Mom and her went inside and spent the rest of the night! We went out to check on the boys the next morning and hen it was just play the rest of the morning!
Flying Dusty Crophopper to our "New Home"!
It was such a fun night! I love simple pleasures with my family!
