When Dads are in charge (...in the wild...)

The kids get filthy

They hunt for bears (if you click on the picture below, you will see that some kids have light sabers)

And obviously, they manage just fine without their wives! (that log below was the "firewood" - they just fed the fallen tree into the fire for a continuous burn)

This was 11 of the 14 kids on the camping trip. (age range 20 months to 7 years) While hiking, they all sat down to rest in a perfect row and the guys scrambled to whip out their cameras because it was so cute. Apparently, this picture is unposed.

Is it wrong that I look at these pictures and am THRILLED that I was at home in my warm DRY (it stormed while they were there) house? Long live Daddy camping trips!

It looks like everyone had a fantastic time! The difference between a mom and a dad in camping is that I would have whipped out the baby wipes, never let them feed a log into the fire and cautioned them about poison ivy the entire time! Perhaps staying warm and dry at home is the best thing!
