Dirt, sun, good food, great friends, s'mores (with peanut butter, sans chocolate), river rafting, life doesn't get much better. Camping. One of my greatest loves. This weekend was hopefully the start of Charlotte's deep love for the outdoors as well. We spent the last 3 days in the Klamath National Forest at Indian Scotty Campground with some wonderful friends from church and had a phenomenal time. The campground was beautiful, the weather was ideal, the half-deflated river raft was perfect for an exciting and memorable adventure, and the bridge was superb for jumping. I could not have asked for a better time. Charlotte is the best little camper I have met! She hiked, she napped, she was bathed in a stock pot, she learned about distant galaxies, she made s'mores (and then deprived of the joy of tasting one), she slept all night. Never has she reached such levels of filth or exhaustion; and yet, that smile stayed plastered on her face the entire weekend. Jeremy and I reflected on the way home what a joy and pleasure she was to have along. It wasn't stressful or excessive amounts of work, just fun and relaxing. She really does make everything better. It was so fun to share something we love so much with her. We are so blessed with such an easy going baby that it makes adventures like this not only doable, but enjoyable. When can we go back?
