A Campin' We Will Go!!

Last night this is what my backyard looked like!!!!!!!!!!!
Rod lived out in Colorado for a few years before we met and he spent a lot of time camping when he was a child. So needless to say, he loves the outdoors. Me on the other hand, not so much. In order for me to go camping you will have to supply me with some AC or heat, a mattress, plumbing and a hot shower :) Lately Rod has been talking to Nathan about going camping sometime soon. Well last night was the dry run! Rod had the tent all set up in the backyard. Sleeping bags ready, lanterns out and burning, gas grill/stove to cook breakfast on........you get the picture.

I am proud to say, Nathan made it the ENTIRE night! He woke up this morning and the first words out of his mouth were "What a refreshing night of sleep!" I love it!!!! I am happy to say this is one hobby the boys can do without mommy.
Now for the next adventure..............camping FOR REAL in the woods!!!! I will be having a girls night out if and when that ever happens. :)

A little star watching with mommy before bedtime!

Passing the time away with some games.

Night, Night, Sleep Tight...........Don't let the bed bugs bite!!!!!!

That's great! And nothing at all wrong with a hobby the boys can do without Mommy.... I think that's the hobby I'd be putting all my focus on. What a memorable night for the boys!
