4th of July


For the 4th we ended up camping about 15 minutes from home. That works out perfect for me because then I can run home and do some wash or pick up things I've forgotten, or take a shower. It was a fun time 4-wheeling, playing games, eating LOT'S of smores and just hanging out. We got to see some very late night fireworks from a town close by. They had to shoot them off at midnight, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to see them! If you look closely you can see the mosquito bites all over the babies faces. They must be really sweet for the mosquito's to like them that much.
Enjoying smores. A nightly tradition.
Ryder in dirt heaven.
Nancy Newell, Katie Russell and Robyn Newell. We are enjoying a game of dominos while the men are out 4-wheeling with the older kids.
Peyton's first bloody nose. It seems we have always documented all of our boys 1st bloody encounters. Why? I don't know, it's a guy thing and I am out-voted!

This isn't from camping, but it sure is cute! It doesn't matter how slowly I open the dishwasher they can hear it and they speed crawl to it. Just recently they figured out how to get up onto it, or maybe they helped each other up.

lil girls hairdo's

My youngest sister Jessica has the cutest little girl, Adde, and she always has her looking so cute. She's had a lot of people stop her and ask how she did Adde's hair. So she started a blog. If you have girls and have the time to try some cute hairdo's, then check out her blog: cute2tryhairdos.blogspot.com.
