The farthest I’ll venture for camping is our backyard. I’m pretty much a big baby when it comes to being outside at night with all the creepy bugs and animals. But honestly, every time we camp out there, we have a fantastic time. It turns into some of the most enjoyable moments with family. Today, I’ll be sharing the 14 essential items I always bring along for our backyard camping nights.
