Before we had littles we used to go camping from time to time....Ed has been wanting to take the boys camping for awhile. So we celebrated Fathers Day one week early and went Camping for 1 night.
The van packed for O.N.E. night of camping (insert oh my how are we going to pack for the beach for a whole week!?!)
The Tent- TADA as Benjamin says =)
Christian was beside himself to finally be camping!!
Benjamin was just a ball of sweat he is very hot natured like his mama- oh and thats ice in his hand he was eatting on to help cool down.
So excited to help Daddy cook the hotdogs!
Watching the fire
Benjamin's turn
Yummy! 
What camping trip is complete without Smores? When we were done with dinner we fixed smores and Christian loved them Benjamin could have cared less he was not interested at all!
Testing out the water at the lake before bed!
My boys
Snuggles with Daddy before bed there were no pictures after they went to sleep because lets just say it took them awhile to get there =)
Playing in the lake
Christian LOVED playing in the lake and floating around...he thought he neeed his life vest and his swim ring plus hes got his bucket in his hand.

We had a great time camping and look forward to going again. The boys keep asking if we can go tomorrow.
I did some editing with the picture and I think I LOVE them both!
My big boy playing in the pool-
Benjamin my little tuff guy
and he definetly has a W.I.L.D. side~



Benjamin didn't get to particpate in puggles this year but he did get to hang out with some amazing kids and these two wonderful ladies were his teachers. When we started going in the fall he would cry everysingle night when we dropped him off but as we got a couple of months (yes a couple of months) under our belt he started going in with no problem at all.
Chrstian is looking forward to the fall when he will be in Cubbies and Benjamin will be in Puggles but for now we are going to enjoy our Summer break! 







Be OUTSIDE!
Benjamin was so excited he got to slide down the pole for the 1st time!
