It's a Camp In!

Today was 
Rainy 
and
Gloomy 
and
BLAH!

So to bring some outdoor fun inside we decided to have a 
CAMP IN
The kids each got a pop up play tent for Christmas
(Thanks Uncle Eric)
We don't get them out a ton because the kids think they can only use them in the living room
And they kinda take up the whole room
So we got out the tents 
And they stuffed them with every blanket, pillow, and stuffed animal they could find.
After the tents were up and ready it was time for a bed night snack.
I don't know about you but around here the only reason to go camping is to have 
S'MORES!
So we got out our supplies and prepared our tasty treats.




 Now you nuke them for about 15 seconds
Let them puff up a little, but not too much.
 Take them out and enjoy the 
ooey 
gooey
goodness
that you've been missing all winter.




Then after our delightful snack we watched Butler play a horrible game of Basketball.
Ok so watching TV's not a traditional camping activity but it was still a
fun (frustrating) family activity.
Then the kids passed out in their tents and Reed and I went to our nice comfy bed.
This really is the ideal way to camp.

  2. Thanks Erica, you are too sweet. Maybe you can get Scott to try out this kind of camping instead of the real thing!
