Camping

A few weeks ago we went camping with some friends. It was only about 1 hour outside of San Diego. We had dressed for late April cold San Diego weather (50/60 at night). Much to our surprise we got SNOW instead. That's right 6 inches of snow covering our campsite and more like 40 degree weather. Awesome. One of our friends was even wearing shorts. Well, it was an "adventure" for sure.

We had brought games and delicious food. But we pretty much just stayed as close the the fire as we could and didn't have the energy to play games. Sad. How did those pioneers do it? No, really? But don't worry we still a good time.

At about 10pm we called it quites and nestled into our sleeping bags. I tried and tried, but really it was just too cold for me to sleep. So, I turned to a sleeping Brett and poked his nose (which was the only part of his body outside of his mummy bag). He awoke, and I said, "I'm cold, I can't sleep, help me." He immediately turned my sleeping bag into a mummy bag moved my pillow, worked some magic, held my ears and started blowing warm air on my face. Comical, yes. But, all I could say as I was thawing out was, "Thank you".

Its amazing how sometimes, even though you are a fully capable woman, you are just helpless and need your husband. In some situations, they're just really nice to have around :)
