We went Camping!!
I say this in large text because as many of you know, I am not a camper!!! But, that doesn't mean I don't like a good challenge. So, when the Romeros (yes, all of the Michael Romero Sr. offspring) decided to go camping as a family, we were in!
I would like to take credit for the very awesome, roomy tent that we finally got to use! I bought this for Mike a few years back and it has been packed away the whole time. It sleeps like 8 people and has a special cove and outlet for a dog. Ok...I admit...the dog component sold me. And no, Chloe did not join us that weekend...as a matter of fact...where was chloe that weekend? Anyway, she survived and so did I.

I would like to also mention that I have gotten teased multiple times for buying such a large tent and I feel like it was the perfect amount of space! We have room to grow into it and you could easily separate smelly stuff from clean stuff.....a major priority for me when out of my element!
Here is little Michael looking about as thrilled with camping as I am! But really, he had a blast with his Nana, Grandpa Mike, and the rest of the family.
Now, this camper is a major factor in my willingness to go camping. We had running water and a potty that was not being used by everyone else on site.

Most of you know that Little Michael is one of MANY Romero grandsons. He loves all of his cousins, but I have noticed a particular kinship between him and his big cousin Anthony. It is always fun to watch them spend time together and bond.
I love the way they are looking at each other here! Buddies for life!
I can't believe you can almost see all the way to his shoulders beneath the car door!!! I love this pic!I really was there!!!! I was a trooper, but did not desire to be in any of the pictures! Overall, we had a great time and I really look forward to our next camping experience. Preferably not in June heat and somewhere farther away than east county!
