Annual 4th of July Camping Trip


This year we we returned back to a little spot that we usually go to for the 4th of July. It's very close to home, but far enough away that you feel like you are really in the woods.

This was also Madeline's first 'official' camping trip. She handled it like a little trooper. She is not able to have sunscreen or bug spray on, so she was mostly indoors.

The big kids had fun though.

They had the kiddie bike parade again this year. Only Cailin wanted to participate. Andrew was happier back at the camper with Mom and Madeline watching the parade as it passed.



Andrew also had fun playing ladder ball, going to the playground and just playing outside.

Jake certainly enjoyed himself. We got him good and tired.

Other than a big storm Friday night, the rest of the weekend was just perfect weather-wise.

All in all a great weekend away!

Andrew turned 5!

Andrew recently had his 5th Birthday.

We had a family party and he had a party at daycare.


We are planning a 'friend' party soon (when Mom gets her act together).

Andrew was most excited to get some of his favorite toys. Shocker!


But he also likes birthday cake too -
