It was also fun for the boys because a lot of the people helping put it all together were their summer camp counselors. (We strolled up to get our doughnuts Saturday morning half awake and they all welcomed the boys with "Hi Brady! Hi Brett!" - pretty funny)
We camped out at the park right outside the swimming pool (our tent was right outside of the kiddie pool where the fountains ran all night long - luckily no one peed their pants :) they go to 3 times a week at camp. And Brett was thrilled because he got to go off the diving boards/slides - which he doesn't yet get to do at camp because he hasn't been able to pass the swimming test (all the way down the lap pool - a long ways for little britches). Brady was not so thrilled because he had been complaining of an ear ache so we told him he couldn't go under water that day - mysteriously that just lasted a day.
There was a guy from the Cosmosphere set up with a huge telescope right beside where everyone was making their smores. The moon was just a sliver Friday night, but we were able to see it SO CLOSE. It was really awesome.
The movie was "Furry Vengeance" with Brendan Frasier and Brooke Shields. We had never heard of it. After watching it (and considering who was in it), I figured it was 15 years old but it came out last year :) It was a great camping movie and the boys thought it was hilarious. And Ed seemed to think it was hilarious to be very cheesy while I snapped a shot during it.
Next morning - orange juice and doughnuts/bagels before we headed home. And I was super happy because I had a hair appt. to chop off my nappy hair in a couple hours. Yeah! :)
Overall, I'd say it was a success!
