We decided to do a camping test run to see how the boys would do with it all. They Loved it! Collin couldn't wait to camp out in grandma and grandpas back yard. He told me everything we would need... A tent, flashlight, PJ's, sleeping bag, and don't forget the smores! We had a great time playing in the sand box, setting up camp, gathering firewood, building a fire and of course roasting marshmallows for smores! Josh ate a few marshmallows, graham crackers and some fire roasted little smokies then with a full belly fell asleep on my lap. After Collin had his full tummy he told us he was ready to go get in the tent. He had a little trouble falling asleep because he was making up wild stories about what was going to come and get him but after much convincing he finally gave up and fell asleep. Scott and I slept under the stars on a tarp just outside the tent. Josh woke up a couple times during the night and they were both up and a little too excited at 6am! Josh thought it was so cool to wake up outside. He kept pointing at the trees and things around us and giggling. Collin was so excited to realize that he made it all through the night and nothing came and got him!
Overall a pretty fun experience. I think we might just have to do some camping this summer!
If you can't tell Collin was super excited about the whole ordeal! And yes Josh is naked....he would rather be that way every day all day but he had gotten watermelon juice all over his clothes!

Sounds like a fun little camping trip. Especially feeding toddlers smores just before bed :)

Great activity! Your boys are so cute! And it's official, I need a bigger backyard or I need to live closer to a grandma.
