Camping with a Life Group
One of the Life Groups we oversee was going on a camping trip and invited to join them since we are their coaches. I haven't been camping in forever and the leader of the life group got a great deal so I couldn't turn it down. Plus we were going to be sleeping in air conditioned cabins so there was no hot tents to deal with which Peter was happy about. I tried to get off work a bit early and picked up a few things on the way home. We hadn't told the kids about it so they were super excited when we told them what to start packing. We arrived at the camp and were directed to our cabin. We had free time tonight to get settled before dinner. At dinner we met at a big camp fire and cooked our hot dogs over the flame. Later we had roasted marshmallows. When we had all enjoyed our dinner we wandered over to an air conditioned building where we found pool noodles that were cut to sword size. We had a blast beating each other up with them and then the kids ran around and danced for a long time. Eventually it was time to get the kids cleaned up from all the outside fun and sweaty inside fun they had. Once they were clean we put them to bed in the cabin and then went to the other cabin to talk to some friends. We must have been gone a long time because when we got back to our cabin the lights were all out and we had to sneak in quietly and find our bunk. There were enough beds for everyone to have their own but Peter and I don't sleep well apart so we shared a little twin bunk because that's how we roll.
