The kids were more than willing to help out!
After setting up the tent it was time to sit back, relax and laugh!
BBQ hots dogs were on the menu along with some corn that we cooked on the BBQ as well!
After dinner we entertained ourselves by jumping on the tramp, playing with the dog and singing to the music!
Then of course it was time for the smores!
Doing all this in the backyard, we started to attracted many neighbor kids! Oh well, the more the merrier, right?
Luke started a game called "how many girls can I get to sit in my lap?"
To finish the evening we decided to light some fireworks. I know it's not the 4th yet, but who cares, they were so much fun! Our neighbors saw us doing the fireworks and decided to join us, but they had the cool fireworks that shoot up into the sky. Yes, they are illegal, but the kids thought it was the greatest night ever!
After all the festivities, we tucked ourselves into our tent and went to sleep. No, I slept in my bed! What can I say!
Tomorrow day 2 of the stay-cation.....Cowabunga Bay water park!!

What a fun idea! I love this. I know our kids would totally love doing this also. It looks like you guys are all back to feeling good. I am so glad!
Staycations are all the rage right now! I have been planning one out in my head as well. We haven't toured a lot of the cool things around our home (zion's ect.) and I thought it would be fun to have a staycation to get to know all the cool things we live by!
You guys look like you had such a great time! I bet it is something your kids will remember!!
