We decided to go camping again this weekend - I was supposed to be going to Oban for a choir rehearsal today, but I decided to skip it and go camping with the family - much more fun! :)
The weather was amazing, the kids had SO much fun... they went paddling in the sea and built sandcastles and we played frisbee... we had hotdogs and pork kebabs and ribs, baked potatos (in tinfoil in the fire!) and a tin of beans for dinner, followed by toasted marshmallows... the kiddies ended up not going to bed until about 9ish for Kathryn and 10ish for Alexander as it was so light and we didn't have watches on that we hadn't realized the time until we checked our phones!!
We used our new tent which we ordered off of Amazon for £30 and it's GREAT! It's bigger, easy to assemble and easy to put away! We were much warmer than last time, and slept much better!
Kathryn woke up at 5.30 with an exploded nappy but then after half an hour of playing went back to sleep 'til 7.30 which was okay! Poor wee thing was very tired today and didn't have her morning nap but she fell asleep as soon as we got in the car to drive home. She has SO much fun though being outside all of the time, it's so lovely.
Poor Kathryn got a sunburnt bald patch on the top of her head though!! We put sunscreen all over her but never even throught of her head! Alexander has two little sunburnt patches on the backs of his legs and Adam's neck is bright red! I'm the only one that didn't wear any sunscreen and I just have a little bit of red on my shoulder's and that's it! Think the kids must have inherited Adam's complexion!
We're all exhausted now though, and stink of campfire smoke, and have to wash everything that we took with us because it's all smokey too. But it's worth it! Had a lovely lovely time! Can't wait to go again!!!
Here are some pictures! :)
That's all for now! :)
