Camping

We went camping with the Stones and Marshall this weekend. And by camping I mean, we stayed in a cabin on a lake at a 'campsite' that had a pool, jumping pillow, and putt putt golf. Let's call it 'glam-ping' - i'm giving Sara all the credit for this one. Air conditioning and showers aren't technically camping.
I took the boys to Target and stocked up on necessities and only felt *slightly* judged for purchasing so much beer before noon with three children in tow. Sara was awesome and brought all the food for the weekend which was helpful because it was a pretty tight squeeze in the Honda with all that beer and water.

The cabin was really nice, with a bedroom and a loft - plenty of room for all five adults and five children (all under the age of 5!).
 The loft had two queen mattresses on the floor and the kids had a blast jumping around up there. And the kids had fun helping deflate the air mattress in the living room in the morning.

 Stone treated us to his special bacon jalapeno wrapped dove. He spoils us. Plus it was his birthday! (Happy Birthday Stone!)
 Rich was so sweet with Everett!

We did actually leave the cabin and spend time outside! We swam both days we were there, and hiked around in the woods collecting sticks for the fire. 
 Justin took the boys fishing and they finally caught something after Stone brought Sadie back to the house. Who knew fish were scared of dogs?!?
I'm serious y'all - we love to camp! Who wants to camp with us next?

Uncle Travis and Uncle Grayson came to visit last week. I was terrible at getting good pictures, actually these were the only two I took. Jonah, Griffin, and Everett enjoyed the excitement and entertainment from their uncles!

Cousin Camp

Jonah, Griffin, Everett, and Harper got to spend the week together at the farm in Caldwell. Mama and I had our hands full (and I got lots of crazy looks in public with 4 small children) but we had fun! Hopefully next summer we will feel up for the challenge of 5 and have Duncan come for the week too!
We stayed busy and tried to spend a lot of time outside:









Oh the memories they are making :)
