Camping!

A couple of weeks ago...

We went camping!  This was the first time we have been with kids... and we decided it make it fun by jumping straight in with both kids!  It went well... considering...  lol.  I completely forgot to take the pack n play for Brady to sleep in, but luckily I decided to throw in Tanner's rocker at last minute.  That was a LIFE saver!  We went to Two rivers after Will got off work.  Brady LOVED running around free, and Tanner really likes the outdoors.  We decided to let Brady play till he wiped out, which was around 9.  Then Brady had fun jumping off and on our air mattress...Will finally got him calmed down and asleep around 9:30.  We had a really rowdy  family reunion going on across from us who were up till partying... and luckily Brady only woke up a couple of times.  Forgetting the Pack N Play was a blessing in disguise because Brady would pop up out of nowhere and I could just pat him back to lay down and cover him up without getting out of bed.  Tanner ended up sleeping with us most of the night.  The next morning we made breakfast, packed up and left.  We probably would have stayed a little later but the mosquitoes were eating us alive!  They were CRAZY!!!

We learned camping is A LOT different in NE then Arizona.

Pros:
Only bugs we have to worry about are mosquitoes, and it is super grassy
There is always wood.
Camping is a 30min drive max away

Con:
Plan on it to be wet...from the rain or dew, make sure you have a canopy and Tent to keep things dry (which we did!  AMAZING!!!)
There might be wood, but it's probably wet.
Camping is more expensive cuz we can't just go anywhere, we have to go to a campground and pay or a site.
