Arn't kids Amazing!

It never fails, if I am having a bad or grumpy day, my kiddos do something to make me laugh! This was one of those days. Allie decided to make her own pirate outfit. Even a pipecleaner eye patch, and a hanger hook for a hand. I could not stop laughing! I sure do love my girls!

Life has been so crazy lately, we just had to get away. We decided to get a condo at Seaside for a few days. It was so nice to play on the beach, swim, be together, and mostly just relax. I love having no computer, no phone, no responsibilty! It didn't hurt that the weather was gorgeous!

My Sweet girls!!!

I woke up to breakfast in bed. They worked so hard find something good and tasty!!!!

Last hurrah before school!!

I sure was not ready for school to start this year. We were having way too much fun. I don't like to be so scheduled. We decided we needed to do at least one more thing. We wend to Oaks Amusement Park. It was busy, but so much fun. The girls loved it. It always makes me happy to watch them have fun! I sure do love my girls!

Camping Again !?!

This is probably our last camping trip of the year. This time we went to Fort Stevens. It was beautiful weather. It was warm enough for the girls to wear swimming suits, which is pretty amazing on the Oregon coast. Katie LOVED the sand, it was EVERYWHERE!! Trying to shower her off in the campground shower proved to be a bit of a challange, but she did love getting dirty.

Ruby Mountains!!

After Detroit Lake we went to Northern Nevada to the Ruby Mountains. I had never been there before, I must say that it is BEAUTIFUL!!! Darrell's dad retired so the whole family met there to camp and celebrate John's retirement. We really enjoyed it. The girls LOVED seeing their cousins again. We all went on another of the Baker's notoriously "short 1 mile" hikes. Of course it ended up being like 10 miles. But the scenery was so amazing it was well worth it.

This summer we bought a tent trailer. We had so much fun camping and spending time together. Our first trip was to Detroit Lake and then on to the Ruby Mountains in Nevada. I just love relaxing and spending time with my fam!!
