Daddy Daughter Camp Out

As you can see we were all very excited for the daddy daughter camp out

and all of the yummy marshmellows!!

This is us looking for the things on our treasure hunt

that they handed us when

we got to the campsite. It had things like Pine Cones, Fern, Worms.....

After the long hike and treasure hunt we all decided to go to the bathroom............

Or Not

Then we ate.... and ate because we were really hungry..... and we wanted s'mores!

Finally it was time for the marshmellows

Dottie and the Turtles

Our neighbor Bob works at a grocery store and is very

nice to give us all the leftover or out-dated lettuce for our turtles. Now that

we have put our bunny outside she eats the lettuce too!

She is so cute!

Dottie and Shelly

that's Tomy


After Dottie left it was just the 2 monsters tackling the huge pile of lettuce!

Tomy and Shelly

The one on the left is a little bigger than a dinner plate, and I can't even pick
up the one on the right.

Some Assembly Required...

Mike decided it was time to take down the

playset and put in a trampoline.

When we emptied the boxes we weren't too

sure it would actually happen.

We all got in on the assembly process.

But who ended up doing most of the work?

You guessed it - Mom and Dad.

OK, mostly Dad, but I did my share too.

Sweet Success!!!

No major injuries yet - but we'll keep you posted

Meeting Jack

I was lucky to be able to go up to Idaho with my parents to meet

my new nephew Jack. Kaitlyn sent along a hat she made

for him - it was a perfect fit.

Jack is so little and so sweet.

He was held the entire weekend because everyone wanted their

turn to hold the baby. I'm sure I held him more than my

fair share, but I loved it and so wish they still lived

in California so I could hold him all the time.

Macy and Jack were able to share their big days together.

Macy was baptized and Jack was blessed on

the same day.

Macy looked beautiful and so grown up!

It was great to be able to share the day with them.

Tyson was so excited to see Grandma -

he couldn't get to her fast enough.

Tyson loves his cousin Macy!

Lindsey would let me know when I was holding

the baby more than I should - she wanted her turn too.

But who can blame her when he is so cute!!!
