Sounds to me like you have it covered pretty well. The only thing I would add would be a deck of cards (for rainy afternoons and evenings) and a notebook for a journal of the trip.

I had a discussion with the crew the other day about bringing a set of clothes you only use for sleeping. Furthermore, I explained the idea is to keep very little in your tent besides the sleeping clothes, sleeping bag and sleeping pad. If it was used on the trail or while cooking/eating it should not be in the tent.
  Then we had some questions about exceptions. The specific questions included camp shoes, flashlight, water bottle (not used for flavored drinks), and a stocking cap used outside of the tent. Can anyone provide the hard and fast rules as well as some common sense guidance.
