camping with Daddy

I haven't been very good about updating the blog lately because I've been pretty busy. But things are going well. This past weekend was the Fathers & Sons Camp Out, and the boys had a blast!
Joshua's favorite part was when he got to eat chips he says. Silly kid. I think he was extra excited this year because this was Sam's first time going.  Joshua was really looking forward to showing Sam the ropes! They went along with some of their little buddies, who brought their new puppy...so that just added to the excitement!





For Mother's Day the kids (and Jon) were so sweet. I was greeted with breakfast in bed, which consisted of a Cliff bar & a cup of ice water. I thought it was pretty cute of them (Jon wasn't involved with that..that was the girls' idea:)!  Throughout the day I found little treats that had been planted in places for me to find.  It made for an exciting day!  But even better than all of the treats was watching the kids go out of their way to be extra good & helpful - to show me they love me. They are good kids...I'm such a lucky mom! 
I hope all you other moms out there were treated as well as I was! 

(Sammy came home from camping with some battle wounds on his chin...only one minor injury...not bad!)

I can't get over how big the boys are...crazy. I feel like it was just yesterday I was being introduced to all your BABIES ln this blog--now big kids.

I am so glad all 3 of your boys love their special camping trip each year. What a good dad Jon is! Camping with two small boys is no easy task!

Happy mother's day! You deserve a great day. You're an awesome mom and you have 4 sweet, silly and beautiful little kids to prove it.
