Daddy Daughter Camp out

It was Madisen's turn to go on a camp out with her daddy. She wanted to go so bad when Billy and Koye went on the father sons one. Here she is getting ready for bed.
It looks like she just woke up here. Billy said she slept good but he didn't get much sleep. She's not the early riser type so she was asleep in the car when they came home.

Here she is playing with sticks in the fire. Billy said it was one of her favorite things about camping.
All the girls got in a huge water fight with their dads and this is Madisen trying to stay out of it.

Our little Hulk

Koye got these Hulk hands for his birthday but Crew really loves to wear them. You have to be on the look out when he's got them on because you are likely to get a punch to the head.

He was very interested in the goat in this picture, this kid loves to watch TV.

Halloween in June

Madisen went in one day and found the kids Halloween costumes. It was funny because Koye, being the non-stubborn kid that he is, wouldn't wear this costume last Halloween and of course now he wants to wear it. Notice the little Crew pumpkin on the floor, he wasn't very happy about the whole thing.
Madisen forced him to wear this, I heard a lot of screaming from the back room from Crew and I figured Madisen was teasing him but he came out wearing this. I think I would scream too.
He got used to it a little more and had fun with the kids running around.

Cutie Pie

Chris and Shelley just sent me some pictures of my little niece Braelyn, I had to show her off.
I think this picture is so cute of her, she looks like such a big girl and check out those cute shoes.
This is my sister-n-law Shelley, Braelyn's momma, she looks just like Shelley did when she was a baby.
And of course, you have to have one of these pictures. My dad used to do this to all of us when we were little and Chris is carrying on the tradition.
We really miss this little girl, we only got to see her a couple of times after she was born then we moved up here to Oregon. You better come and see us soon so we can kiss those chubby cheeks! Love you guys!

Williamette River

Last Saturday we went down to the river to check it out. The kids wanted to throw rocks in and I think that was their favorite part. There was a lot of duck poop around and Koye kept trying to pick it up thinking it was rocks.
We found a park near by. Crew wanted to check out the teeter-totter.
Crew was very interested in a duck that kept following us around hoping for food so I think that is what he is concentrating on here.
This is where they were throwing in rocks. Billy was trying to teach them how to skip rocks across the water but didn't have too much luck.

Father and Sons camp out

Koye was so excited to go with his dad on this camp out... can't you tell by the look on his face. He got to sleep in a tent, roast marshmallows and hot dogs and run wild with a bunch of boys! In the morning he told Bill he didn't want to go camping anymore because he was freezing.


Here he is with his friend Tavis running off all their energy.
