weekend getaway!

Well, My DW and I homeschool our kids and we are going to our most local homeschool convention about 3.5 hrs away tommorow. Best part is, NO KIDS!!!! We have a 7,5 and 2 year old and it's a much needed getaway even though we will spend most of our time at the convention. The WONDERFUL thing about the trip this year is we've decided to book a campground a few miles from the event and I am stoked that I'll get to camp while we are away and not have to stay in a disgusting, germ infested, bed bug hotel!
I am excited about having a nice quiet dinner with the DW thursday and friday night at the campground. Anyone have any good ideas to make it more romantic in the RV???? :B
She's new to camping somewhat and I want to make it a special time for just the two of us yet we are in the woods!

    thanks everybody. We had a great weekend. glass of wine and chocolate covered strawberries with some mood music made the first night, and last night was just a real good relaxing sleep with no kids waking us up wanting water or to use the bathroom! Things when well until I back the camper into the driveway! Battery issues! jeesh

    Do all the cooking and serving and take sdianel's advice on proper settings. BTW, don't forget to shut the blinds and keep the stabilizers tight to limit movement. LOL

    Flowers, steak on the grill, baked potato in the microwave, salad in a bag, wine if she likes wine. Don't forget plastic wine glasses if you don't already have them.
    Battery operated candles would be safer. Don't forget mood music. If you have a DVD, a chick flick like Sleepless in Seattle.
    Another easy quick meal is frozen lasagna, salad, bread. Look for Stouffers small microwavable lasagna.
    Enjoy your much deserved trip.
