Last night we decided was the perfect night to set up the tent and have our first backyard family camp out! Of course, this was all decided as the sun was getting ready to set. There is nothing quite like trying to set up a brand new as it's getting dark, but that just added to the fun of camping out in the backyard! Thankfully the set up time (of twenty minutes) on the box was totally spot on. Otherwise we may have had to abandon our adventure for another night.

I think its safe to say that I was born a James Taylor fan. When you grow up in New England it seems to me that you are almost obligated to become one. Such was the case with me. My entire life I have wanted to see James Taylor in concert. And my entire life I have wanted to see a concert at the institution that is Tanglewood. On July 3rd both of those dreams finally came true! And as an added bonus, we got to see Carole King too!
Dave and I decided recently that we should become a camping family. We love nature and being outdoors and so do the girls. It seems to be a natural fit for us. And,. while we really have no camping experience we decided to give it a go in conjunction with the trip to Tanglewood. We borrowed camping supplies from my friend Betsy, packed the car up, said good-bye and have fun to the girls and Gramma and took off.
