Camp Chief Little Turtle Family Camp

The Stump family invited us to a memorial weekend campout. We were lucky to snatch the cabins for the weekend for our camping comfort. We all had a lot of fun. We had foil dinners over the campfire and Smore's of coarse. All day the kids rode bikes, played in the lake, ran up and down the giant Sand dune Mountain and tried out canoeing and kayaking. So much to do! The boys got to kayak by themselves for the first time. Nathan got a ride in a canoe for the first time, and he hated it. He was pretty frightened. The Sandune's were a hit for everyone. The kids played flashlight tag with flashlights and glow sticks in the dark. It was a memorable trip that we will probably do again next year.

Spring Break to Destin, Florida with Friends

 Our Spring Break destination was back to Destin where we brought along our friends, the Stump Family.  We rented a huge house and it was a beautiful break from normal.  The kids played, ate good food, swam, dug in the sand and made amazing memories together!

Practicing His High Jump

 Swings are not meant to simply swing on.  That would be way too boring.  Swings are meant to jump off of as high as humanly possible.
