Daddy-Daughter Date

Noelle didn't have school on Tuesday so Brad planned a special Daddy-Daughter time with his little girls.  They set up the tent and camped downstairs.  The evening involved all the good parts of camping without the negative less-appealing parts of camping.
  • The window was opened, but Brad closed it when he got too cold.
  • The s'mores tasted great, but they didn't fall in the fire since they were made in the oven.
  • A chorus of crickets lulled them to sleep, but it was a app on the iphone, so you could shut them up if they got annoying.
  • There were no bugs in the bathroom and there were comfortable beds upstairs in case anyone changed their mind...no one did.

Sadie opted for sleeping alone in our play tent - with tunnels

The crickets were an app on the iPhone?!?!?

Oh...my goodness. Who thinks of such a thing?

The smores look really really delicious...hmmm, I might have to send Dave out to the store for some Hershey bars. The baby is hungry.

yes, camping is definitely a "Spence Thing" and I can see by these pictures this event captured some of the unique benefits of secluding yourself in another setting. Memories are still be made but without chiggers, ticks and poison oak...or drunken teenagers after grad night. Good job, son! (Now Pastor Brad has no excuse, see, you're reading a book!)
