It was so fun getting to do something fun and special for her for her Birthday. I loved it.
Then Friday night the hubs thought that it would be fun to go camping to celebrate 3 months of marriage. (yes we are still silly and celebrate our monthly anniversaries... and I plan on doing this for awhile... till we forget basically...) For those of you who know me you must be thinking "CAMPING??? Heather??? What was he thinking?? Does he know you at all??" The answer to all these questions is... YES. Yes. yes...
We went camping at Osage Hills here in Bartlesville... it was a "trial run" before we REALLY camp in October at Devils Den.
I packed a light bag with a couple changes of cloths... warm and not so warm... you never know the weather around here. Andrew was shocked... he asked why I even needed extra clothes... we were just going for one night... to which I rolled my eyes and he put a change of underwear and a tshirt in the bag. :)
Here are a few pictures ... they don't capture how great the night was ... but they are fun.
The car... all packed... FULL!! |
Buddy Boy Buster is ready to go!! |
Cami is ready to go... she has NO idea what she is getting into! |
The hubs and I ... ready to go! (yes he asked me if my earrings were necessary... I told him just because I was camping didn't mean that I didn't need some bling!) |
Is that a lighter?? Maybe... but remember this is NOT real camping... (Yet) |
Buster was not a good boy... he had to be punished... |
Cami "Brother, what did you do?" |
"Sucker" |
His behavior improved... he wanted to enjoy the fire with out being tied up... (notice my leg... I'm in my flannel jammies... it was ONLY 8:30 here!) |
Rise up old flame, by thy lights glowing, show to us beauty, visions of joy... It still takes my breath away to see a beautiful campfire. This picture doesn't do it justice at all! |
These are several little boys and their dads... they did not respect the "quiet after dark" rule... |
All in all it was a wonderful trip. Andrew said we will really need to be conscious about what we bring because we have to walk aways to get to our camp grounds... I have informed him that it is ok. He can make multiple trips... I will be packing clothes, and shower stuff. There WILL be a shower, there WILL be a toilet that flushes, and we will again pack the tent with the air mattress. It will be great... Andrew won't quit raving about the beautiful trees and leaves and weather. He says that it is time for me to experience a real fall!
