The summer is almost over and we had not gone camping yet. I convinced Justin we should go somewhere close so we drove up to Idaho City and camped at Greyback Gulch. It started off pretty good- roasted hot dogs, smores, the usual. Then bedtime hit. I figured Wes wouldn't sleep great, but that kid did not sleep at all!! He woke up every half hour, which meant not only him, but the rest of the camp too. Poor little Maddie slept through most of it but then by 3am she was up too, saying "mom, when we get home, we'll paint our toenails pink!" Funny what kids think about at 3am. We were all glad when morning hit, although it was freezing and Wes, at 8am and after about 2-3 hours of sleep, was ready to go explore. He dragged us all out of bed, much to our dismay. Well, we got our fill of camping for the year, that is certain. Crazy house, huh? It is actually someone's residence in Idaho City.

Congrats on another girl. I didn't know you were expecting. Sounds like you had a great time camping. Who needs sleep anyway?
