the great outdoors ...

Thursday night, we decided to embark on an adventure - something we hadn't done since the summer of 2006 ... CAMPING. So, we dusted off our tent, lantern and chairs and set up camp at Tumalo State Park, about 20 minutes from our home (just in case things went horribly wrong). The good news: they didn't. It was a beautiful, warm day, we had the Deschutes River to explore, we enjoyed a delicious BBQ, had a campfire and, of course, Cheetos, one of Alyssa's favorites (see picture). Alyssa loved playing in the tent and snuggling up to Mommy at night, as it was a bit chilly. Overall, it was a great experiment turned experience.
