Winter Camping

Winter time can be boring! It's too cold to go for a walk or a bike ride, there hasn't been enough snow this winter to do a lot of good snowmobiling, we can't go spend money like we used to, in the Littlewood house most cold winter nights are spent snuggling on the couch watching TV or a movie. Which don't get me wrong I love but it's always nice to throw a curve ball into the mix sooooo..... Saturday night we went "camping" Preston spent most of the day Saturday freezing in the garage getting motorcycles ready for Moab and I spent most of the day glazing our bed room furniture (post coming soon), so I decided we needed a fun date night. I cooked tinfoil dinners in the oven, made some yummy s'mores cookie bars, you can find the recipe HERE and made a tent in our front room!

Bandit had so much fun while I was constructing our tent, he was sure I was making a house just for him, he was runnng and jumping into the blankets and pillows and he took all of his toys into it.

Well of course to make this even more fun I wouldn't let Preston look in the front room so of course he knew something was going on. As we were eating dinner I asked him to guess the "theme" of the night, I had to give a few hints but he figured it out. So after our tummies were full from dinner Preston being the good sport that he is let me blind fold him, and lead him into our tent (and I only made him run into the wall once, on accident of course)!

It was so much fun seeing his face once he saw the tent, it was just so fun doing something completely out of the ordinary.

We put a movie on and snuggled under our tent/drive in/star gazing contraption :)

I had a very rough time getting a good picture of the two of us so these had to do. While watching our movie some of the Christmas lights started to fall down, but my sweet hubby let me play with my camer for a little bit before we put them away

It was a very good night and something we can say we had never done before, I love being married and getting to do things like this with Preston, and having so much fun together! Oh and a bonus for Preston....

he got to play PlayStation with his puppy in his "bunker" the next morning!
