The top three things I hate about camping:
3. The bathrooms. Uggh.
2. The dirt. The sand. The dirt. The sand. Did I mention the dirt?
1. The “bed.” Seriously, people, this is fun?
The top three things I like about camping:
3. My kids love it.
2. My kids love it.
1. My kids love it.
So, the deal is that my friend Susan organized a mom-and-kid camping trip (one night only) at a campground near the beach. When she said we could order pizza for dinner, I was in. I mean, how hard can it be?
Did I mention the dirt?
Or that my other friends’ tent totally COLLAPSED around midnight? (Thankfully, this was long before we were IN it.)
Or that between the 7 moms, there were 18 children?
So the good parts?
3. Hanging out with the other moms by the fire.
2. Watching the kids run and laugh like hyenas.
1. My new friend Stacey’s drink: equal parts coconut rum, cranberry juice, and pineapple juice.
A drink like that can make any day better. Thanks Stacey!
I enjoy camping – but you are absolutely right about the dirt. And the bathrooms. And the lack of comfy beds.
But, I love me a good campfire with good friends and good Smores. YUM.
Ya know, Sugar, you drink enough of those concoctions, and any bathroom will be fiiiiine, just fiiiiiiine!!!
