Backyard Camping

We had an adventure over labor day weekend... I set up the tent in the backyard for the girls to have a backyard camping trip!

Sabrina Katz came over and the girls had burgers, dogs and corn. The girls collected wood and I built a fire for s'mores. They sat by the fire and then played flashlight tag on the trampoline. It was great watching the lights bounce up and down in the dark and hearing them laughing for hours. I snuck around the house and scared them in the tent (and they got revenge on me in my bedroom later that night).

It eventually got too hot for them and they came inside to sleep. It's the end of the summer and I think we can go on a real camping trip this fall.

We watched the last 2 Harry Potter movies on Saturday and Sunday and Abby went for a play date with her best friend Payton while Kathleen, Marina and I went on a long bike ride around the neighborhood. We almost got lost but Marina toughed it out up and down all the hills.

We made a special breakfast this weekend...Elvis French Toast!

Elvis French Toast:

Mix Peanut Butter and Banana's in bowl thoroughly together in a bowl and spread mixture between two pieces of bread.

Dip sandwiches into traditional french toast batter (eggs, milk, vanilla)

Fry to a golden brown
