Last Sunday we had our neighbor came over for some dinner and games. Melody made some fantastic french toad out of some of her home-made bread. Truly Delicious (note the capital D)! As our neighbor was getting ready to head out for the evening, he mentioned that we ought to go camping sometime soon. Abby honed in on "camping". Before a second passed, her arms were in the air like an athlete finishing the Iron Man. "WE'RE GOING CAMPING!!!"
Have you ever seen those pranks where someone is given a fake lottery ticket? (if not, here's a reference point). That was about how the next 5 minutes unfolded. If crestfallen needed a picture in the dictionary, one of Abby after she found out that our neighbor wasn't talking about tonight would be a good fit.
So we struck a compromise, with Abby and my stunning wife's help, we set out on a journey to the living room wilderness and set up camp. Needless to say, the trek was a success.
