The boys stumbled home this morning, dragging their bags with black under their eyes as if they had just walked across the meadows of Gettysburg after a six month dragon slaying battle.
I'm probably not too far off from the truth, other than the Gettysburg part.
Brad/Scoutmaster Dad ran the overnighter very smartly. He set a one hour alarm the entire campout, and when the alarm sounded, each Scout needed to drink half a glass of water to stay hydrated to prevent misery the next morning. He also put the kabash on the evening at 2am, which of course is more than appropriate considering they started at noon the previous day and that means fourteen hours of video games.
They spent the day at home lounging around, playing Legos and having no screen time whatsoever.
Since they were absent for Sunday Family Game Night, we played another round of Sorcerer's Arena as a family, and pizza for dinner, because to heck with it.
