Gone Camping...

So you're not a big fan of camping out...or maybe you are, but it's just not a good time to leave the kids home while you and your spouse take time for yourselves to get acquainted with nature (in more ways than one!) Or, maybe it's winter and frostbite isn't your thing... Put all your excuses aside...camping out at home is sure to be a night you won't forget!

Here's what you'll need:

• The invitation---to give him a little tease (I gave him this the morning of...)

Glow in the dark stars (buy at any party store, $ store, walmart, online) and sticky puddy to put them on the ceiling. {Make sure the stars have been exposed to light for a while before turning off the light!}

A tent (if you don't have one, borrow one, or make your own tent-like fort with blankets!)

Lots of blankets, pillows for inside tent

Finger foods (hot dog, hamburger, chips--or BBQ something outside and bring it in to the tent or make a foil dinners in the oven)

Plants from around the house (mine are all fake!)

Nature Music

Games (deck of cards or anything easy game you like to play together)

Flashlights

Cook s'mores over the stove

HAPPY CAMPING!
