our very first erskine family camping trip!







I can't believe that it's taken this long for us to get our act together but we finally did it! We went camping! The four of us had a blast sitting by the bonfire, roasting marshmallows, going swimming, and sleeping in the tent (even if there was a crazy thunderstorm). I'm excited for having many more camping trips as a family, especially after seeing that it is do-able with two toddlers. {And just as a side note, I must say that I love our truck! It works for camping on so many levels, but the best is that the back can be used as a change table. Very helpful when you've still got a kid wearing diapers.}

one great quote...

"whenever i get gloomy with the state of the world, i think of the arrivals gate at heathrow airport. general opinion makes out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, i don't see that. seems to me that love is everywhere. often it's not articularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there. fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. when the planes hit the twin towers, i have reason to believe that none of the calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge, they were all messages of love. if you look for it, i've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around." -Love Actually
