Recording a live acoustic session

I'm wanting to record live acoustic sessions but I'm not sure what the best way to do it is. It would be me and my friend both singing, an acoustic guitar, and occasionaly a box drum. Something similar to this: https://youtu.be/EreZNkWzBAw. What would be the best way to record this and what gear would I need? Would a small diaphragm mic do a good job? It would also be recorded outside, but it'd be near a house, so we could use extension chords for anything requiring power.
 
You could do a USB powered interface, laptop and condenser mic. Problem is, the outside part. I use a couple of small AKGs with a windsock, but the wind can't be more than a breeze.

Recording it won't be your problem, the wind noise could be your biggest issue.
