Warm Weather Fun

Well, we had a blast camping. The nights were cold but we were not. Yes, I brought electric blankets, I'm no dumby. The days were downright hot. We had very yummy food and wonderful company. After spending two nights camping here in town we were able to go to a state park and play there for a while! I am now trying to get all the laundry done which so far I've done 4 loads and I have one or two more to go, talk about mind-numbing. It has been nice to have a few days off of school stuff but Parker is starting to miss it all ready. I can't believe he is almost done with first grade and I will have two to keep up with this fall. Here are a few pictures of our trip.

This was at the end of a long day, at least there is one happy face in the pic.

Ryan is a very good Daddy. It was fun to be with everyone.

Reegan didn't like the "She Shells" to be dirty!

I told Parker he could get his hands in the water if he could do so without falling in......

Marshall didn't get that memo!

So the we let them all get in at a spot that was much shallower. (Yes I like to make up words)

The end of the day walking again the river. The boys have been asking for months when we could start swimming again. Well I guess now!

Of Little Words

Parker is growing so very fast and his teeth are just one of the many signs.

Yesterday he lost his 4th lose tooth. Actually he pulled it! This is the first one on the top and he looks like a real snaggletooth. He is even talking funny. He has two others lose right now if they all come out as fast as the last one he won't have any thing left to chew with.

Marshall could not wait to start soccer. I was almost afraid that he would not like it as much as he had built it up in his head. Luckily I was wrong, he loves it.

This is him meeting his coach for the first time.

This is their first game. He had to play the entire game because not enough kids showed up for there to be any subs.




Like I said, I didn't have much to say but wanted to get pics up.

Little boys big trouble!

I sat in the other room for no more than ten minutes and come out to this. A living room full of toilet paper. My first reaction was not one of laughter. I didn't need to ask who had done this because shame was already all over the face of my little Mister Carson. "This makes Mommy very sad" I told him "why did you do this?" As I asked this question I had a feeling that Daddy would get a kick out of seeing the response from the first TPing of his offspring. I hope you get a kick out of this too. I know we have had our laughs. As he starts to clean it up he tells me, "There might be poop on it" When I asked why, he tells me "Cause sometimes there is poop on tp!" I told him that we put the used paper in the potty not back on the roll so this will be clean. This kid keeps me jumping.

Marshall started soccer last Thursday and will have his first game this Saturday. He lives in his cleats and shin guards. Parker will be starting fencing tomorrow night, how cool is that? I will get pics of all our new adventures and share them with you soon. We are so ready for the summer. All three boys will be able to do swim lessons this year and we are getting ready for our first camping trip over spring break. I am really starting to love my BIG boys and the fun stuff we can do, but I also like that they will still cuddle with the mommy.
