camp out

abe had to go camping before his birthday. it was one of the last requirements left for his arrow of light. dave really wanted to take him cross-country skiing to a yurt, but with moving and his work schedule, they ended up in dave's parents' backyard. it seemed just as good as the state park and since it was freezing wintry weather, we thought it would give them the option to abandon ship if needed. they set the tent up in the snow and snuggled in for the night. they told stories, and then slept all night. the next morning they conveniently came inside to sit by the warm "campfire". abe told me what a great time he had with his dad. i am grateful for dave and his tireless effort to meet every one's needs even when life if crazy. he is a good dad.
