Campin'

So in my marriage book that I am reading for book club it says that one of the keys to a happy and durable marriage is one in which each partner helps the other realize his or her dreams...that's the only reason on this blessed earth that I go camping! (Well, that, and the s'mores.)
Here are some highlights from last weekend (these are the moments that make camping tolerable):

Campfire

A little midmorning walk out to the tidepools

Kayla and Charlie picking blackberries in their jammies just a hair after sunrise

Benny and his laaaadies (except for his sister...eew gross)

Kayla in her beach hut

And of course all 3 families (Watsons, Williams and Fishes) who agreed to come along with us and share in the joy and splendor of coin showers, freezing nights and children covered in filth from head-to-toe!

So I'm wondering, what kinds of things do you do (that you may or may not enjoy) to help your spouse or significant other "realize their dreams"?

I let him buy a broken-down truck to turn into a 4-wheeler. It just sits mostly, but it gives him something to plan for and tinker with. That trip was a lot of fun!
