Camping

I gave Isaac an early birthday present last night since we'll be in NYC on his actual birthday--a backpacking pot, 2 bowls, 2 mugs, 2 sporks, and a carrying bag. It is the coolest thing b/c there is a lid for the mugs to keep your hot drink warm, and the pot lid has a built in strainer. Who knew I'd be so crazy for cool backpacking equipment? Oh, and it's really tiny and light.

We're looking forward to camping with friends over July 4th. And taking a couple trips on our own. I still need to buy a sleeping bag, but that will be easy enough. It will be nice to try my hand at camping with Isaac. He's a die-hard backpacker but understands I can only handle so many nights without a shower! : ) I told him our first backpacking trip would be good if it was 1 night this time! I think building up slowly might be my kind of pace.

In other news, I have my annual review today. Wish me luck. It's only my 2nd review in 3 1/2 years at BB&T.
