You might be wondering how a family of six can tent camp for a week. Here's how we did it:

Night One: Since we were only staying one night at this location, we used our small, four person tent. Since 2 of our little people equal about 1 grown up, we were good! I really do enjoy "roughing it", however, I must admit I don't ever want to camp without air mattresses again! It makes everything better! A queen and a twin fit snuggly in our little tent...the whole tent was bed! Thank goodness we were only using the tent for sleeping anyway! Nights Two, Three, and Four: We stayed in Sinks Canyon State Park in Wyoming. We found a great campsite and set up camp for the remainder of our vacation.

This is the path to our campsite, complete with cute little bridge over a cute little stream. Campsite 23 was our Home Sweet Mountain Home for four great days.Yes, that would be a river in our front yard! It was awesome to have it so close. As we were assembling the big tent (the box read "Deluxe Three Room Cabin" lol!), I couldn't help but sing the theme song to Good Times..."Movin' on uhhh-uhhpp"!

When we arrived at our campsite at Sinks, it was starting to rain. We pitched the small tent and threw the kids in there while Lige and I assembled the mansion. All I can say is Thank God we practiced assembling it at home first! It went up pretty smoothly for two reasons: 1. We were familiar with it and 2. Lige and I make an awesome team! We decided to keep both tents up. We slept in the condo and kept all our supplies in the small one. It was great!

Keep checking in. I have so much more to tell you!
