Friends Don't Let Friends Camp

Jeni and I went camping this weekend with our church. It's no secret that I am not much of a camper... especially when the campsite is only 20 minutes away from my bed, but I went anyway to meet new people and all. But the night actually reminded me of why I don't like to camp. :)

I probably could go on and on, but the major problems were: the puddles of water on the tent floor since it rained all night; the borrowed sleeping bag I slept in that smelled like mildew; the fact that NO ONE wanted to eat smores!!!; a wild rooster climbed on top of our tent at five in the morning to start it's morning cock-a-doodle-dooling; and since I slept (or stayed awake all night) in puddles of water, I am now super sick.

One good thing about having a bad night like that is coming home to a warm and comfortable bed and REALLY appreciating it! Oh, and another good thing... we both got some serious snuggle time in- and not with each other! I spent the night snuggling with our air mattress pump, two pairs of shorts, a spare sweatshirt and a digital camera- and Jeni cuddled with our backpack, the car keys, one phone and three baseball hats. Since the ground was puddling, we had to put everything on our air mattress with us. You can probably understand why we didn't sleep at all.

We only took like two pictures (but we really wish we would have taken more)... I'll try to post them tomorrow.

YOU GUYS! Do you realize that it seriously NEVER stops for you? There is always something that happens next that tops the last story. I am sorry that you are sick Jaim, but you made me laugh really hard, so I'm not that sorry! :)

Who in their right mind wouldn't want to eat smores?! Seriously. Hawaiians are crazy!

I forgot to ask you Jaim, Did you give them any of the hula moves you learned at that dance class? Maybe they would have wanted smores if they had see your doncing capibilities!
