Taylor enjoyed playing with the fire starter and Brayden found his little spot in my garden (which reminds me I need to post about) and played in/ate the dirt.
We bathed the boys, put them in pajamas and went out around 9:15, it was still 83 outside. I took a few books to read and some glow sticks and off we went, the whole ten feet off our back deck.
We read and said prayer and laid down. Matt fell asleep within thirty minutes. Brayden would lay down just long enough for me to think this might be it- he may be out and then he's laugh, or shriek and roll over and crawl all over us. We were generating so much heat it had to be 90 in the tent! Taylor and Brayden played while I tried to pretend to be asleep and see if they would copy me. It did not work. By 11:15 I was done, so I took Brayden inside and he immediately went to sleep as soon as I laid him in his crib.
I went back out side to Taylor and Matt and put the baby monitor on the porch. Well, Taylor kept crawling on me and putting his feet in my face to be funny so at 12:15 we both went in. I told Matt we were leaving and he didn't come so I got our bed all to myself!
At 7:00 Taylor woke up and went outside and woke up Matt. I got to sleep in the A/C and sleep in- what a great night, well kinda!

try again when you move to UT. And have them skip a nap, that helps.
I just realized I don't have an email address for you! Pardon the really long question! We're traveling from dallas to colorado (and on to utah eventually) what route did you usually take back when you were in school? did you go through Oklahoma and Kansas, or is the more direct route on the smaller highways (through amarillo) okay?
We're thinking about going the more direct route, but it seems like there's a lot of space with no towns and our car isn't exactly brand new, so we're a little nervous about it. any suggestions would be awesome!
lol! what a great story. i'm glad you got the a/c. hehe. so funny.
