Camping

We are going camping this weekend! I can't wait...we haven't been in a couple of years and I've missed it! I grew up camping - it was our annual vacation. The boys are THRILLED. They simply cannot wait and I'm excited for them.

Calvin is sad that Pippi will be remaining at home with the dog sitter (aka my brother) but he is looking forward to zipping the tent. Patrick couldn't contain his smile and beam as we discussed our weekend. (We didn't tell the boys until tonight.)

It will be such a relaxing weekend. We decided on the primitive section of the campground - more shade and less people. There is a pool at the campground, hiking, and the all-important campfire. :) It will be wonderful to be away with all of my boys!

Yay, you won! :) Hope you have a great time! We are going to try to get our feet wet in the whole camping dept but we are going to start off in a cabin(I think). :) The boys adore things like this, what we do for our kids, eh?!

Hope you have a great time with the family! Camping is painful for me but all the boys love it!

Ann and I are on the same page, I prefer the cabin. :) Have tons of fun. The boys will love every minute of it!

Cabins are awesome fun, too and quite honestly, if we had been able to find one available, we probably would have gone that route. :) However, I grew up camping in a pop-up and tents so I do love it!
