Tent city/hiking

     Tent City was a success! Lots of yummy food, peach cobbler, home made ice cream and a traditional breakfast. We spent the majority of Saturday hanging out. Greg, Josh, Nathan, Brock and Carter went on a hike and Greg took some amazing photos. They found what they were looking for, a recent helicopter crash in the mountains just north of us, and found lots of crazy helicopter parts. It was amazing to me that Greg was able to locate the crash site after only seeing the general location from our front yard through a scope. Greg's sense of direction is quite impressive.
Always a view worth hiking for.

Lots of helicopter parts to sort through and try to piece together.
    While the guys hiked the cousins played at the park/splash pad. Charlie was in heaven spending so much time with her cousins.

     Father's day was also a success. Greg got to take a nice long nap and Charlie even squeezed in a nap and snuggle with her dad.

    The oldest three kids purchased this fun little camp chair for Greg. It may look like a mistake but it's supposed to be that tiny and it actually holds up to 350 lbs. so it's definitely the right 'size'. Greg also got a fishing license earlier this month so he's a happy 'camper'!

     McClane got to attend Day Camp and had a blast. Luckily his leaders the best and took some great photos that she shared with me.


    And Isaac is working hard with two jobs and anytime he lays down he falls asleep. The best part is he's 'rich'!

     Charlie made a new friend recently but unfortunately she was just visiting so she had to head back to California today, which was kind of sad. Believe it or not, this cute girl is nearly 10 years old and Charlie's just a few inches shorter then her.

     Well that's our weeks worth of fun. I'm enjoying our easy summer schedule and have been reading several books by Susan Meissner, which have all been good. The kids are starting to pester me a little about going swimming so maybe we'll squeeze that in next week but first McClane gets to have his first set of braces put on Monday morning, which should be 'fun'!
