Tent-tastic

Roxi had her first camping adventure this weekend. We went to Hermit Park - a private facility for HP employees that includes rustic cabins and lots of camp sites - with Roxi's Colorado aunts and uncles (Mike, Jen, Scott and Renee).

She spent the night in a tent, ate strapped to a picnic table, played with lots of sticks and went bathless. Roxi's a budding outdoorswoman, I tell ya.

I wish I had some pictures to show you, but our adventure was cut short by unseasonably cold and wet weather. We woke up Saturday morning to thick fog and a forecast full of rain. So Roxi's introduction to the wonders of camping was short and sweet.

We spent a soggy Saturday evening back in Fort Collins at the mall, which is actually one of Roxi's favorite places these days. The pet store has a whole room full of aquariums. She ran from one glowing tank to another last night, pointing and shouting "fuh-fuh-fuh!" (aka "fish!"). She also enjoyed "woof!"ing to all the puppies.
