A mother to boys






When God made me the mother of boys, there must have been some laughing involved. I have no desire to do the "outdoor" thing, unless it involves a sidewalk sale. So, of course my boys LOVE nature. They love to camp, hunt, fish, boat, hike, etc... I would be fine to T-VO a nature show on tv and watch it once a month and be done with it all. The best thing about that is that you do not have to get dirty. Many of you know however, that if the kids enjoy it, you learn to enjoy it as well (or at least try). So this weekend we head off to camp and fish and hike in a place I had never been. We got everything packed,(hairspray? check! straightening iron? check! make up? check!) and watched the weather to make sure we would not be hit with lots of rain or stormy weather. Everything looks good, so we were on our way. We swing through Garrett's parents house to pick up the camper (oh yeah, did I forget to mention that we "camp" with a camper. Bathroom, shower, kitchen, air conditioning, flat screen tv's). Anyway, we drop the dog off with Garrett's parents, oh crap, I forgot her food. So my mother in law goes to buy food for OUR dog that she is so graciously watching for us for the weekend. Now we are ready, we are going to swing through somewhere and get dinner. Oh Crap! I don't have my wallet. Yep, mother in law to the rescue again!

Needless to say, we EVENTUALLY made it and had a GREAT time. (despite the rain). :) Here are a few pictures from our adventure.

Had to laugh at the 'sidewalk sale' comment - that's my kind of outdoor activity, too!

Thank You

Thank you so much to all of those people who have been such a huge blessing to us. We know that we would not be where we are today if it were not for you all. We are so blessed.
