Practice Camping

It started with the boys playing in the backyard with their little tent.
Then it turned into, "Want to get the bigger tent out?" Then I realized it was supposed to be one of the warmest nights that week so we decided to camp in backyard. We called it practice camping because we are going camping for the first time in a few weeks.

We did all the traditional camping activities. We ate s'mores. (Kae is showing off the marshmallow on his hand.)We played in the tent. (Izee is trying to figure out why mom is taking so many pictures.)And we read a story by flashlight before heading to bed. From practice camping we learned that Izee is not quite ready to camp. He just rolled around and giggled in the tent and wouldn't settle down. Izee ended up sleeping in his own bed inside. Kae and daddy slept outside and had a blast. However, the sun does wake kae much earlier then he would normally rise.

After our practice we are super excited for our camping trip in a few weeks!
