From the Door Jam to the Threm-a-rest

Charting the kiddos growth on the inside of a door jam has been a tradition with many families over the last couple generations.  Our kids love standing with their heels up against the jam, standing tall, and letting us mark their height to see how much they've grown since the last measurement.  We took this same idea and enthusiasm and moved it to our sleeping pads.  Each camping trip we measure the kids on their Therm-a-rests and mark them with a Sharpie.  This process has been lots of fun and keeps a nice record of the trips the kids have done.
