Camping! (Part 1)

We headed back to Shenandoah National Park this weekend for our first camping trip as a family of 4. We had no idea how our little tornado was going to handle the whole "sleeping in a tent" concept. We were prepared for a wild ride. While the night wasn't perfect, it wasn't horrible either. We will definitely go again!

Turns out we forgot to pack a coat for Sarah. Oops. She now has a lovely sweatshirt as a keepsake.

Anna all set and ready to go. She lasted about 10 minutes in the backpack before wanting to get down. She walked the entire first half of the hike.

This cute little stream grew as we hiked and became quite the waterfall.

Dark Hollow Falls

With the promise of S'mores with friends, Sarah made it back up the mountain with hardly any whining. We are incredibly proud of her!

This deer was just chilling in the campground.

Relaxing for a minute while Anna plays in the tent.

Bundled up by the fire waiting for an ooey gooey marshmallow.

One sticky mess...

Glow sticks! We hung them in the tent as night lights.
