The kids and I got back home on Friday night after 8 days of camping (more on our adventures later this week!). It was wonderful, but, as camping with small kids is, it was a lot of work. This weekend I have felt so very thankful for sleeping in my own bed and for being able to take a shower. And camping in the rain for 2 nights (with a slightly leaky tent) reminded me how lucky I am to have a roof over my head and a place to call home. And a washer and dryer. SO thankful for those.
On a completely different note.. or maybe not..... after 7 years of NOT having a table to eat at, we finally do. It is simple, nothing fancy, but it is the first place we have had where we can eat as a family. Hooray!
What have you felt grateful for this week?

I hear you on the work that comes with camping with kids. It is fun, but it is work! How wonderful to have a table to enjoy meals at. Nothing fancy is needed, just a place to gather and share a meal. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteCamping is a lot of work, but so worth it.
ReplyDeleteI am grateful for the cold front and not camping :) I was never one for the wilderness living and I married a "hotel" guy, however we do like hiking and being outdoors.
