Camping? (like the Kelseys)

I like camping 100x more than my husband. And I only like camping a little bit. But our boys have been begging us for a camping trip. They want a campfire and "snores" like they watched on Max and Ruby. So what can you do? Its almost impossible to deny that cuteness. You camp. Kelsey style.

First you set up your tent. Xavier insisted that we needed a tent.


Then you pack all the food you will need in the appropriate boxes and coolers.


Then you ignore your mom when she tells you not to open the bag


Or eat the treats before everything is ready


And you admire all the wildlife.

Then you get grammy cause she's the best.

And you try to take a cute couples picture because it has been awhile and the lighting might be flattering. Hmmm.

And you continue to ignore your mom's attempts to keep you from getting sugar-sick.


And you get papa to tell you a really scary campfire story

And you can't believe how incredibly adorable your boys are.


Then you attempt to make snores with your kids without getting 3rd degree burns. Extra bonus: walking away with BOTH your eyeballs.

Then you eat your treats just before bed.

Then you head to your sleeping bag. I mean your house. With your nice warm bed with clean white sheets. And you start to get happy because you realize you get to have a full nights sleep and you won't wake up at four in the morning sweaty and cold. And you get to take a shower in the morning with your favorite shampoo and all the necessary beauty tools you need will be at your disposal. Plus there will probably be time to watch Jimmy Fallon before you actually fall asleep. Then you realize that camping is very fabulous after all.
