Camping with Cheetos

We took the boys for their first "official" camping trip this past weekend. We stayed local just in case things went badly and the boys hated it. It turns out that they LOVE camping and we had a wonderful time.

Now for the title...as we were walking through the campground the boys would randomly tell other campers that we were camping too. The boys would then go on to tell them that not only were we camping, but that we were camping with Cheetos. Like we were the only family ever to bring Cheetos camping! I decided I love people who camp. Most of them are so laid back and willing to strike up a conversation with anyone..even if it is two 4 year old boys. It was great.

We roasted some hot dogs, marshmallows and told ghost stories in the tent. It was perfect. I did discover something about myself on this little adventure. I am not a story teller at all. My mind just goes blank. Oh well..

It looks like Taylor is totally relaxed..

Isaac didn't want me to take his picture..I just love his face.



Again..Isaac would rather be playing...


I can honestly say it took me a good 5 minutes to figure out which kid this was. They both had the same shirt and pants on. Isaac and his "crystal" collection.



This was probably my favorite moment camping..



Taylor and me..

***Grandpa Dude..we did not find a lizard. PLEASE do not bring us a snake! =)

Also..I am SO behind on blogs that I do not think I will bother catching everyone up. Hopefully I will be better during the summer.

With Love, the boys

It took three tries to get this video. The other two turned out much better, but I have to admit this is by far my favorite.

Happy Birthday Mom!!

Renaissance Festival

We decided to attend the Renaissance Festival & Fantasy Fair this past weekend. We mainly wanted to watch the jousting tournament. The boys had fun, though I know they didn't understand any of the humor involved from the knights. Here are just a few pictures per a few requests =)





The horse in the second picture walked by us. When he did, he totally let out this large toot. The boys could not stop laughing. I'm just glad I didn't have the video camera running! They wanted me to share that with all of you, so there you have it.

And of course, a video.

Family Pictures/Boys 5 year Pictures

Ali from Blissful Memories took our pictures this last Saturday at a local park. Here are just a few of them! If you want to see a few more, check out her blog!

***Ali, thank you again! I am so excited to see the rest of them!!!***

Where is Vader?!

The problem with having such a small kitty is he gets lost easily. I could not find him this morning. After searching the rooms I decided to check the bathroom. The poor little thing must have been cold. He was tucked up underneath our bathroom cabinet by the heater. I think it is his new favorite hiding spot =)

Bunkbeds

The boys finally have bunkbeds! We have been debating on whether or not they were old enough but so far so good. Notice the ceiling fan..it is gone now. I will get an updated picture soon. I just had this image of Isaac holding on to the fan while Taylor flipped the switch on & off.
