Setting Up Camp

It has started! Sneaking off on weekends for campfires, good stories and being outside from dawn to dawn. As the fantastic Tom Waits said, "there's a lot of things in this world that you're gonna have absolutely no use for. And when you get blue and you've lost all your dreams, there's nothing like a campfire and a can of beans." I am that type of girl, when things get tough, I run to nature. This weekend the mom's group I have been part of since AnaSofia was crawling scheduled their annual camping trip to Cobscook Bay, there is nothing like group camping with a bunch of like minded parents and watching our kids run wild together.

We were waist deep in the mud flats clamming, whispering stories in the tent as it rained, doing art projects with our paint pens, playing and making memories. Hopeful there will be many more camping weekends in store for us this year!
