Saturday: camping

So despite the threat of rain, it was a very nice day with only about five minutes of a light sprinkling.  It was rather cold in the morning, but nice in the afternoon.

Isaac played hard all day.  ALL day.  He bounced on the jumping pillow.  He bounced in the bounce house.  He slid down the slide.  He lawn mowed.  He played on the playground.  I think the only time he sat still was breakfast, second breakfast, and lunch.  He couldn't even stay seated for dinner, but I think by that time the problem might have been he was too tired.  Needless to say, he had a great time.

Joshua, on the other hand, seemed tired and sleepy all day.  I thought that he just had slept really poorly, but I finally thought I should take his temperature.  The poor guy had a fever.  We gave him some Tylenol and he seemed to perk up...enough that he stayed up way past his bedtime.  The fever never stayed away though.

Ben and I were able to enjoy some nice relaxing time.  Sure, we played with the kids but Joshua just wanted someone to sleep on and Isaac was able to play with two of the other kids that were there quite a bit.  (It is so much fun seeing Isaac play with them!)  We did some reading, napping, and talking.  The fire was perfect; there was no wind so the smoke mostly went up and the temperature was cool but not cold.
