camping party ideas boys image
Live, Love
Our son is wanting to get together with about six or seven of his closest friends for his "belated" birthday celebration. Our son loves the Wii video game and loves to hang out with his friends. He loves to draw, he's really good at it too! What type of party would you suggest that we have that won't break our wallet? We are on an extremely tight budget due to job pay cuts etc...We want our son to have a great and memorable party. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Answer
I'd say a sleepover is a great idea. If he loves the Wii and his friends do, too, then just let them play the games that he already has. Maybe have a championship game for the top scorers.
For refreshments, most boys like brownies and chocolate chip cookies. You could have a birthday brownies or a birthday cookies.
Make your own sundaes. Vanilla ice cream. Chocolate Syrup, sprinkles, M & M's, nuts, cherries, etc. They will have fun doing this.
Since we're close to Halloween, you could go with a Halloween theme. Rent some scary movies. Maybe buy each boy a pumpkin to carve (or decorate with paint, fabric, etc, if you are more comfortable with that--grocery store is cheaper than a pumpkin farm). Have Halloween themed food (freeze spider rings or gummy worms) in ice trays for spooky ice cubes. Worms (slice hot dogs in long strips and boil in water and they'll curl up and look like worms). Mummy Dogs (hot dog wrapped with breadstick dough and bake and then put eyes on with mustard). Caramel Apples (you can make these ahead of time or let the boys dip them-roll in nuts or decorate with M&M's or candy corn). Drink hot cocoa with a floating eyeball (large marshmallow with Choc Chip inserted in the middle). Cupcakes or brownies decorated with Halloween decorations. Potato Bugs (tater tots inserted onto raw spahetti noodle and bake per directions-use catsup for the eyes. Wal-Mart has gummy eyeballs, worms, and spiders. There's also a severed foot or hand in the candy aisle that's gummy w/ some sort of hard candy in the middle-gross but good for 9 year old boys.
Pizza. Make your own, you can buy the crusts premade, use canned biscuits or make your own crusts and a wide variety of toppings. Or, Pizza Hut has the $5 Pizza Mia (a medium) but you have to buy at least 3 to get them for $5 each. They would be less mess and could be cheaper.
Do you have a yard? If so, a camp out. Pitch some tents, have the boys bring sleeping bags. Build a fire in a fire pit (if you have one). Roast hot dogs and make smores. Play horse shoes or ring toss or both. Hold sack races (you can use old pillow cases-can buy from Salvation Army for cheap). Buy some glow sticks or cheap flashlights for the kids to play with outside to tell ghost stories or play ghosts in the graveyard.

What to wear on a church camping trip with a boy that I like?

I'm fifteen and I'm going camping with my youth group tomorrow. I want to look cute the whole time, because I like this guy that's coming too. I need to dress modestly, obviously, but still something easy and cute. I need loads of ideas! I'll be gone for a week.
Answer
I'm going to assume you are expecting hot weather.
If you're going swimming, maybe go for a skirtini or tankini rather than a skimpy bikini- it's pretty without being tarty.
For a shopping trip or walk in town, maybe go for leggings and a cute tunic top, or a dress that's just above the knee in a colour that suits you and is not too low cut. A light colour is nice as it looks innocent and sweet.
For hanging round the camp shorts and a quirky t-shirt that reflects your personality is good.
On a cooler day a pair of well fitted jeans and a nice top is always good.
Take a sweet and innocent party dress as there is normally a "disco" night at camps and this is your excuse to dress up and look your best!
If it gets cold and you forget to bring a jumper he might offer to lend you his jacket ;op
If you are going hiking then wear practical gear- guys hate it when a girl dresses in clothes unsuitable for the activity no matter how adorable she looks!
Keep the make-up simple- foundation, a little blusher, a barely there creamy eye-shadow and mascara and a lipgloss is enough.
Remember to take clothes that you feel comfortable in and that make you feel good about yourself. And most important of all, be yourself and feel confident.
