Nick and I have really tried to get Owen out and about ever since he was born. So far we have done a pretty good job with it. We were so excited for the time when he was old enough to finally get him outside in the rain for a little puddle jumping.
We also decided that we wanted to take him camping before it got cold. We just made it under the wire because it was a cool 50 that night. But Owen was a champ and he roughed it out.
We left as soon as Nick was done with school on Friday afternoon. Silly us, we didn't make a reservation for a camp site before we left. But luckily we were able to find a spot at a camp ground right outside of Starved Rock Park. We got there with just enough time to set up the tent, start a fire and eat dinner before it got dark.
It was so nice of Nick to make dinner. Which consisted of hobo dinner (of course) fruit salad and s'mores!

| Owen made it through most of the night on his own little pad, but I was overly concerned he was cold so he got to spend the rest of the night in my sleeping bag with me. |
After waking up early the next morning and driving back into town for breakfast, we met Nick's parents at Starved Rock for some hiking and lunch.

| Thought Owen was enjoying the view as we hiked, but... |
 |
| ...upon further examination, he was just asleep. |
