Camping with Friends

 I was telling Elizabeth about our coming plans in the next few weeks and she asked when we were going to have a just family trip.  It has been a super fun stretch of camping with friends but this weekend we are hunkering down at home.

I love this photo below of Mark play screaming at the kids.  Nobody even flinched except for Jeff.  HA!!

 The weather has been awesome.  Global warming rules (very much kidding).


 Henry has been an amazing trooper.  Being passed around, sleeping in all sorts of places, skipping nap after nap and just smiling all the way.  He is starting to get a bit of a temper.  He will hold his breath, grunt and turn RED RED RED while screeching.  The other day E called me in the living room with exasperation 'Henry is red momma and he needs to stop it now.' I explained to her that he doesn't have words yet and has to use other ways like crying to let us know.  She sighed and said 'I'm gonna tell him that it would be easier if he just learned words.  Lets teach him today.  This screeching has to stop.'

 Notice the matching sleeping bags above for all three girls.


Below is from our trip with our school friends.  These little kids spend their week together and are simply the best of friends.  Henry is basically their mascot.  


 A moment of quiet play brought on by a Ranger led activity.
 But just a moment of quiet.

 They are making Jeff work for this push up.
