We were lucky to be able to attend the Horsley Reunion this year since we were still in state. Here are the events from Mason's perspective.
Top right going clockwise: Mason at the top of the kids' slip and slide, M mostly naked on a push car, M enjoying outside sports time with his good natured cousins, Our first "camp out" (I can't believe he's two and this was he first time sleeping in a tent. How did that happen? And it doesn't really count as camping since we were right next to the cabin), Mason making an early morning snack raid on Nate's tent, and Mason and Oliver finally getting out of the water.

Staying in the tent with Mason was fun for me as a mom. I'd watch him look around with big wide eyes. He wanted his water bottle, books, and stuffed animals situated just right around his pillow. The first night we went to bed when there were still a bunch of people at the nearby campfire. Every time he heard a kid shout out he would put his fingers to his lips and say SHHHH! The second night we took a glow in the dark stick to the tent with us and he played with that for a long time. He'd put it over by my face to check if I was still awake or not. The third night he was so tired he fell asleep long before we got to the tent :)
