School Camp out

We love Connor's school!!!! I cannot say enough nice things about it, and how the staff is so wonderful with the kiddos. With that said they hosted a camp out. I got our name on the waiting list a little late and she called back and said there is not enough room for another tent, but we were more than welcomed to come and hang out and enjoy the festivities until "lights out". James was BUMMED!!! He loves to camp out and when it comes to this subject his and my ideas are completely DIFFERENT!!! He always tells people that my idea of roughing it is room service, and I think he could live out doors. Now since this is MY blog I get to defend myself...I don't HATE sleeping on the hard, cold/hot ground, with NO electricity and running water I just perfer NOT to!!! Especially now being 29 weeks pregnant getting up to put shoes on and find an bathroom at least 2 times a night is not my idea of a good time. Growing up we camped out and had a ball, but now that I am older and a little wiser I much prefer my soft bed with 700 pillows and a fan that runs on high with the ac on 70 and Connor's noise maker coming through the baby monitor!

Back on track...


So we ended up having a great time roasting marshmallows and eating smores, having a scavenger hunt, running around with flashlights, and of course eating hot dogs (gross)!!!! Connor's "girlfriend" from his class was there and they had their tent up and ready, later I found out they went home at about 11:15. So I am definitely glad we left about 8:45 and slept in our OWN BEDS!!!! (Idon't know why this is underlined)

The kiddos are listening to a bubble story.

Yum! Connor didn't seem to like it as much as I did!!! He would rather have the parts of the smore all seperate.



"I'm not shinning this in her eyes, mommy!"

I know with a house full of boys camping is in my FUTURE, I just hope these boys all realize what my definition of camping is...We still are an undecided house about a name, so if you have any GOOD suggestions send them our way! We have 9 weeks to go:)
