Camping teast for the boys, over easter weekend! GRATE IDEA!!

My husband and I were talking about wanting to go camping this summer. We are very outdoorsy people, but since having our oldest boy, we haven't been camping but once! At this point were wondering how out two boys would do camping out in the wilderness... well, not wanting to waste money on gas, and the time to drive out of the city to find out we decided that trying it out in the back yard was best. my oldest (Kie) is almost 2 now, and we wanted to see how HE would sleep in a tent.

I shouldn't have been too surprised when he wanted to go inside to his warm and comfy bed instead of sleeping in the tent.  We set the tent up in the back yard, and took apart an older BBQ grill to make a fire place. Kie loved to 'cook' his dinner over the fire while sitting with daddy!  He was very ex sided to realize that he could actually eat the hotdog at the end of the stick he was holding! All this time, the baby(Xander), was sleeping in the tent! Xander would do grate camping... but big brother isn't quite ready yet! LOL
