Camping

We went camping last week with my sister and cous and their little families.

We stayed at a super nice camp ground right in Globlin Valley...Best part, it had showers.
This place is sweet for little tykes...and big kids too:) It is like a natural playground.

Good thing our men were scouts and had practice hiking with heavy loads.

Can we say Facebook profile pic!


We stuck with the reef theme and had a little luau.

Jake was the Limbo King. My sis and cousin Romney held their own almost until the end...Me not so much.

Such a fun campout. James isn't so much a camper though. Thank goodness this campsite had free wi-fi so James could get his youtube on. He started to have serious withdrawals by the last day.

Making a Case for the Broken Vase................

James is quickly kid-proofing our home one mess at a time......

It was harder than I thought to sweep up the remains of my two favorite vases this week. James likes to be on my hip, and his hands swipe at anything faster than a frog on a fly.
I knew this day was coming. Just as I know our crisp white linen furniture will eventually be a kid's canvas for magic marker and sticky fingers.

Choosing between a living room full of nicer things and baby swings, I will be picking the latter....I'll just need my camera... somehow taking pictures of the destruction helps purge my depression of the disappearing doodads:)

Baby's Intro to Easter...............

..................I think he's a fan:)

For God so loved the world

that he gave
his only Son,
that whoever believes in him
shall not perish
but have eternal life
.................John 3:16

This passage is all the more pertinent now that I'm a parent...............

Wishing You A

.............Jessica, John, and Baby James
