Yesterday was Jonathan's 29th birthday and since it was Labor Day weekend, we decided to camp one night up in McGaffey to celebrate. We were by ourselves camping Friday night, then were joined by some friends from church on Saturday.

| Setting up camp |
I was nervous about camping with a baby, but Benjamin really seemed to enjoy it! He woke up only twice overnight and went right back to sleep after nursing--even though we couldn't seem to keep his hands warm. He woke up happy and smiling!

| Good morning! |

| Playtime with Daddy in the tent |
On Saturday morning, we took a hike around the area where we camped. Then, when our friends arrived, we played games and had Jonathan's birthday cake at lunch.

| As usual, Benjamin slept through the hike |

Jonathan was very excited to get his first smart phone for his birthday. I guess our family has finally joined the 21st century :) But it was fun to celebrate his birthday away from all of our gadgets and distractions, under some beautiful New Mexican stars.

| Happy campers! |
Now we are looking forward to a visit from Tim, who arrives on Tuesday!!

| All worn out |
We just got our first smartphones this summer also! Yay, 21st century, & happy (extremely late) birthday to Jonathon!
