Birthday Campout {Earth Hour}

March 23-24th 2013

A tradition has begun to celebrate Michael and Jayden's birthday as well as Earth hour with a camp out up at our block. 

We invited some family which made it really special and we all really had a great time!


Louis caught a grasshopper!





The boys and their cousins playing in the dirt...I can't tell you how much I love seeing them so happy to just be digging around...


Good old egg and spoon race...


My Dad and brother firing up the BBQ...


Yeah...Jayden has no pants on, the one thing I forgot to bring was a change of clothes for everyone! What was I thinking?


Love this tree...





Love sitting around a campfire...


Happy 3rd Birthday Jayden!  He wanted a "Jayden" cake so that was easy!









We finished the night off with sparklers and glow sticks...so much fun!


I didn't get any photo's, but we also toasted marshmallows in between chocolate wheat biscuits for our version of S'mores. 

It was such an amazing night and we all slept pretty well in the tents.  Up early the next morning for some eggs on toast for breakfast. 

Sometimes the simple things in life are truly the best!
