Not the Outdoorsy Kind of Guy

This weekend we decided to go camping (in our back yard). Last year (or year before), we bought a tent on clearance at Wally World. It was a 3 room tent that was marked down to practically nothing. Which just so happens that is all we have.
The kids and I are going to Missouri with my mother this next week so it really didn't make sense to take 2 trips so close together. So, we decided on the back yard camping adventure.
Luke loved the tent. He crawled from one room to the other, laughing, and having a great time. We roasted marshmallows and hot dogs. Lots of fun.
All was well and good until bedtime. All of a sudden the fun was over. He cried and fussed incessantly. This went on for what seemed like hours! Finally, John folded and took him in the house. He leaped out of John's arms and into his bed, rolled over, and went to sleep.
John says he slept all night. I, however, would not know because I was outside in the tent with Moriah, "Queen of the Back Yard Camping."
On a brighter note, maybe he won't complain anymore about sleeping in his bed!
