Homes by Deltona employee, Sandy Rainwater, shares her pre-Thanksgiving experience with her grand kids:

The week before Thanksgiving is a very busy week.  With so many family extended members, it can be difficult to find your own special time with grand kids!

This year I decided to take a different path for mine:  This past week I have enjoyed a great time putting together a “Camping Winter Wonderland” in my living room for the “Grands.”

I purchased two dome “tents” from Gander Mountain, for juniors, in olive for the boy, and pink for the girl.  Then purchased coordinating sleeping bags, and the blow up mattresses to go inside.  Additionally, the camp ground is decorated with one small pre-lit tree, two reindeer with lights, a snowman with lights and some electric fireplace logs to finish off the scene.

Flashlights, compasses, small camping lights and an assortment of books finish the inside of their private suites. The children’s Uncle Jack will be camping with them outside their tents in his sleeping bag!

We watched movies and ate smores with hot chocolate for a long evening of entertainment before we celebrated the big Turkey Day.

Fun! Fun! Fun!
