The joys of camping with kids

The great outdoors, gotta love getting out into nature for a little rest and relaxation, peace and quiet.  Ha, impossible with two kids.  Ben and I had good intentions of taking them for a hike to wear them out and ensure we had an early bedtime. Truly a laughable attempt. The first 4 minutes were great...they were asking questions about nature, trying to identify poison ivy, picking up walking sticks... but then it was a fight about who was going to be the leader, and someone's legs are tired, and then came the tears.

Does it get better? Silence is a state I hardly ever experience anymore. I miss my good buddy silence.
