A Fun Fall Weeekend

We had a cookout at Grandma and Grandpa's. Here Nathan and Ron are roasting our chicken sausages. They were yummy.

Claire caught a caterpillar.

Kate found that she is a fan of pickled asparagus. Imagine that.


After that fun dinner, we finally did the thing Nathan has been telling the girls they could do for a long time. The whole family (except for Kate) slept in a tent in the backyard just to get in some practice before we try a real camping trip. I forgot to take any pictures. :( It was a little chilly, but the girls slept like rocks until 7:30. Getting to bed at 9:30 was pretty late for the girls, but it was a nice early bedtime for Nathan and I. So, although the yard is a little hard and lumpy and the back ached a little in the morning, I felt quite refreshed. I should probably go to bed at 9:30 every night...but then I would never get to talk to my husband.
