First Family Camp Out

Notice the dirty face?

This water was really really cold!

Monkey's friend from Church.

Our very first! I was a little hesitant because I wouldn't have all of my normal conveniences, but I knew that Supper Daddy was really pumped about going and I didn't want to burst his bubble. Now, I'm glad we did it and I can't wait to go back. Of course, I forgot the hot dogs, Monkey's underwear, and some pots to cook in, but we managed just fine. I am way too forgetful for my own good. It's a wonder I can function on a daily basis as scatterbrained as I am. Anyways, one of the focuses of the trip was for Supper Daddy to compete in a bow shoot. We went through one of the rounds with him and it was really fun and Monkey could spot the animal targets right away. He got all excited when his Dad drew back the arrow to shoot.
We met up with some friends while we were there which was nice-a fellow Mommy to talk to and sympathize with. This was also her first camping experience with little ones. All the kids were great. Oh, and Tinker also got to try out his bow. He can barely do anything with it except swing it around. Monkey is getting there. He can actually shoot an arrow, but not with a lot of force. My little archers in the making. It is a fun sport. I tried it myself while I was there...became addicted...bought a bow...and a dozen arrows. I had no idea it could be so much fun. Supper Daddy is full of tips for me. Apparently I am being groomed to compete at the next shoot in June. I just hope I don't embarrass myself.

Another Zoo Day

You are going to get tired of seeing these "zoo" pictures. It was another beautiful day. We went with some of Monkey and Tinkers' friends. Aren't they cute looking at all the animals. They never tire of seeing them. Monkey was so funny on that toucan at the park. He could really make that thing move. Enough to make me nervous. I just knew he was going to fling himself off of it, but he didn't, and I let him throw his weight into it full force. Man, I love that little guy. He is so funny.

Zoo

We are officially members of the Zoo! Oh, I am really looking forward to going back next week. The kids just loved looking at the animals, riding the train, and running around laughing and screaming. It is so nice with the spring weather.

Lots & Lots of EASTER

o

So many eggs, stained hands, Easter baskets...and so much sugar I am surprised the kids didn't explode. The pictures say it all! Monkey wasn't into the egg hunt as much. Tinker was alllll about it! He was surprisingly good at it, and so cute to watch. Tinker cracked every single egg he touched. We colored 5 dozen eggs and have been eating egg salad and deviled eggs all week. Oh, and I almost forgot about the new addition to the family. (No Mom, I'm not pregnant) I think we are going to name her Bell. She is red headed just like the boys, and a very spunky little guinea pig. She fits right in.
