Camp Benjamin

Ben turned 4 on Friday!!  Cannot believe he is FOUR!  I love this age!  We decided to do a camping themed birthday party.  We were hoping to pitch our huge tent in the back yard so they could all play outside, but since we had snow on Thursday and have had frigid temps we decided against that on Thursday night.  Allen saved the day by finding this pop up tent for £12 at a local store Thursday night!  It was perfect!!

I love to plan a party!  Ben had a blast with all his friends!  Here are a few from the day.  Sorry for the blurry pics but it just shows the constant motion of little boys!

The assistant!  All ready with his lumbar pack and whistle!

The campsite ready for all the excitement!

They all got torches (AKA flashlights) as a party favor.

My very talented friend, Kat, made this AWESOME cake!

Lots of laughing!

Lots of exploring!

Trail Mix making

Bug finding

Hotdog grilling in the sleet and snow

Fun camping food!
(I made a string tent pinata, it was fun for the kids)

Only time they were still was while eating!

Now I have the camping bug.  I think the boys would have a blast!
