Camping


We spent the weekend camping in Oak City with the fam! It rained a ton but we still had a lot of fun. It was so good to have everyone there.
Ridge absolutely loved camping and especially being outside. He slept all night for 3 nights in a row which is more than I can say for when we're home. He's pretty stinking cute!
The kids love the 4-wheelers and the helmets! We are so lucky that the kids are so good about wearing the helmets. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for buying such neat helmets!

Max, Kenli, Colter
The kids had so much fun playing in the dirt and the rain. They were fighting over Kenli's little 4-wheeler the entire time. They have quite the love/hate relationship...especially Kenli and Colter! I don't know what we would do without all of these precious kids.
This is Ridge's newest thing. He was getting so mad because I was swaddling him and he wanted his arms out. He would fight until he got them out and then knock his binky out. It was this endless cycle all night...wrap him up, get his arms out, knock his binky out, cry...! Finally I used a little motherly thinking or what I like to call critical thinking. I grabbed this stinking cute giraffe my mom bought him when he was born. He wraps his arm around it and wala... he is occupied! He still occassionally knocks the binky, but it is much better than before.

End of School Party

Roberta threw a huge end of school party for the kids with food, games, toys, and a massive water slide. They had so much fun. Thanks Roberta for always doing such fun things!
I can't believe how much Ridge looks like his daddy. I guess the saying is true, "Like father, Like Son!" Ridge was enjoying the party too.

Roberta had this huge water slide/toy that the kids absolutely loved. Kenli wasn't sure about the slide because everytime she went down it she got sprayed in the face. She just wanted to be the one spraying the water!

Kasey, Kenli & Max
Kasey seemed to be quite annoyed that I was making him stand there to take the picture. They were having so much fun there was no time to stop.
Kenli loved the water gun and would not let go of it. She was spraying all the big kids, which I think was getting pretty annoying to them, but she was having a blast.
