It was very cold at night, and even inside the tent trailer and inside my sleeping bag I was freezing.  I was happy to pick up John and put him in the bed with me when he cried because he could warm me up.  When Ryan came to bed (he&#8217;s on the late schedule, remember, and doesn&#8217;t go to sleep until at least 2 hours after me) I was glad for his warmth, too.  <\/p>\n<p>But beside the cold at night part, we had fun chatting with cousins, hiking around in the trees with the kids, keeping John out of the stream (at one point I tied the long rope to him to make sure he wouldn&#8217;t go into the stream), doing crafts with the kids, and eating.  The diet was thrown away for the camping time, and we all enjoyed the good camping food.  We didn&#8217;t get to nearly half of the craft things I had planned, but that&#8217;s ok.  The kids were happy just playing and playing in the dirt and water always ranks higher than crafts.<\/p>\n<p>All in all it was a successful trip.<\/p>\n<p>But the best part was that when we came home, the cleaning elves had come and cleaned up my house&#8211;including my pantry!!
