Camping night! (and another tooth)

Today was an absolutely gorgeous day here, so Brandon decided that it was finally a good night to take the kids camping in the backyard.  Bennett has been asking all summer, but it has just been way too hot! This is Miles's camping debut, and he was very, very excited about sleeping in the tent! We had brats and veggies for dinner, then made some S'mores! It was the first time Bennett would actually put all of the S'mores parts together (she typically likes food very separate), and she liked it that way! And, of course, Miles dove right in to the S'more eating adventure! Then, at about 8:30 they headed out to the tent armed with headlamps and books.  Hopefully they go to sleep sometime soon and make it through the night.  I think they will.

Bennett's parting words to me were, "Mommy, I'm just worried about you that you'll be lonely sleeping in the house all by yourself." 

HA!

 Clearly caught him in the middle of saying "cheeseburger!"

Bennett's turn!

The first bite!

 Because I didn't quite catch Bennett's first bite.

 Ready to go in the tent!

 Bennett being goofy because she thought Miles's other picture was funny.

On a totally different note, last weekend the tooth fairy visited again for Bennett! Now she has a giant hold in the bottom of her mouth! The tooth fairy brought her 4 quarters sprinkled with pixie dust and a Cinderella puzzle.  Bennett was so sweet and asked if she could share 2 of the quarters with her brother since he hasn't lost any teeth yet.  

And, of course, she had to put the puzzle together right away!
