Summer Fun

Remember when you were a kid? It
was always an adventure to sleep
outside whether it was in a tent, on the grass, or on the trampoline. Well, Noah and Maddie talked Mike and I into sleeping on the trampoline the other night. We got everything set up. We had a pillow fight. We looked at the stars and enjoyed the cool air. Then we went to sleep, or at least tried to. I have a hard time sleeping in my own bed so I knew this would be tough, but I had high hopes. Maybe it would be different. Well, I was comfortable enough. I think that Noah has a little restless leg syndrome going on though. Every 5-10 seconds his legs were going crazy. Needless to say, I could not sleep. I ended up going in the house at 2:00am to try to catch a few winks. Mike lasted the night and although I didn't, I hope the kids remember that we had fun before going to bed.

What a good sport. I loved that when I was younger but I can't imagine sleeping out there now! Yuck. The bugs, the noise, you know how I feel about camping! Still looks like fun, though.
