The short (2 inch) tubes used for the target bodies just arrived and Xenia poses on top of them.

Tim and Lisa brought their camping trailer for us the Sunday before. During the event Ry and his kids slept in it, Xenia used it for baby sitting and it was just generally a wonderful thing to have onsite.
