Camping In The Backyard

 Since we weren't able to go camping at all this year, we decided to borrow a tent and camp in our backyard.  The night started out great with roasting hot dogs and marshmallows.  We even made s'mores which were yummy!
 We had some yummy corn, too.

 
We waited until it got dark and then we watched a movie in our tent.  We rented E.T. and the kids loved it.  That was one of our favorite shows as kids so we thought they would love it, too.  About halfway through the movie, it started sprinkling.  By the end of the movie it was raining pretty hard and by the time our heads hit the pillows, it was downright pouring.  I thought for sure we would end up inside, but surprisingly, we all made it a full night outside.  It had stopped raining by morning and our tent kept us dry through the night.  But we could tell some liquid was put down.  It was a fun night and we decided it's the best way to go camping!
