Took the kids camping solo this weekend
Wife had a work thing so I packed up the tent and took the boys (8 and 5) out to the lake for two nights. No disasters, got a fire going, caught some small fish, and they actually slept through the night. Coming home they both said it was their best weekend ever. I'm still riding that high.
Dude nice. Your wife needed that break and you crushed it. Two nights solo with an 8 and 5 year old is legitimately impressive.
