Some more

Toby got Belle this space saver seat. It isn't only a space saver, it is a sanity saver! :) She is a wild little thing and is all over the place. It was so nice to put her in her seat to eat and let mom get some stuff done! She doesn't mind it either. Noah having a camping whiny moment.
HAPPY!
Can you tell he HATES camping!

This is how the kids were on the bike ride. Toby pulled them. :) I had Belle on the back of my bike.
Julie's bike needed a little work so Dad and Julie took care of it.

Later that evening, it was Belle's bedtime. I forgot to close the curtains and just a few minutes after laying her down, this is what we saw.
After Belle was asleep, we roasted marshmallows.

I looked over and saw this and to be perfectly honest the mom in me went....Oh no! just for a second. Then I laughed and took a picture. If you notice the scratches above his eye. He thought the bench at the picnic table was a little lower than it was. He jumped off and this is the result.

Still eating
DONE!

Ready for floating.

My mom heard this great camping omelette deal. So we tried it! It worked great! You take ziploc bags. Write your name on it. Put in two eggs and whatever other adds you want. We did cheese, olives, mushrooms, peppers, ham, tomatoes, salt and pepper. When you have put in what you want, you get out all the air you can, zip it up and throw it in a pot of boiling water. After about 15 minutes you pull it out and you have a delicious omelette. The best part is, no dishes!!

This is Bob finishing loading his omelette.

So, this is the Mesa Falls, Yellowstone day. I will post those pictures up when I get a chance. :) Look at all the abundance just on the table that the Lord blessed us with. Thank you, Lord!

Gabe's camping spot

When we were heading to Warm River to camp, Toby was worried that there wouldn't be a place for us to camp. The week before he had been up there and it was packed. We pulled up there and Toby said he was going to go look and hopefully there was a place for us. (they only reserve so many and the rest are first come first serve) Gabe said from the back seat,"Dad, there is a place for us. I prayed to Jesus and asked him to save us one." When Toby walked in there was one place left in the entire campground. What a sweet faith my little boy had. He believed and didn't worry. Such an example to me!

Warm River Camping Day One

So, we went to Warm River to camp for about 3 days. We got the a day before Papa and Gram did. We set up camp and started having fun.Noah went straight to playing in the dirt. :) We went on a bike ride...I forgot the camera...so no pics of that. It sure was beautiful up there!
Getting ready for the ride.

I look alot more flexible than I feel. :) I guess all the ballet isn't out of me yet.

When it warmed up we floated down the River. Now for those of you who haven't been there, the "river" is VERY shallow and NOT warm!
First, Toby took the three older ones while Belle was taking a nap.

When Belle woke up, we joined them. She was so funny! That water is not warm and she just wanted to get as much of herself in there as possible!
Juju was so funny and even floated by herself for a while!

The kids and I floating...isn't the scenery beautiful!
I had to keep ahold of her so tight so that I didn't lose her over the edge!
Haha, the first thing I thought when I saw this picture was...I didn't realize her hair was THAT long!....it ....Julie is just perfectly behind her....Funny!
Yes, she is an awesome camper and loves all it entails!
My sweet little Noah!

Hanging out at the trailer!


Papa and Gram showed up and we had a blast playing and teasing. Amy, Kaleb, Addey, Josiah, Granny and Micah came up with the rest of the guys and it was nice to see them! We thank the Lord for all the safe travel and fun that He granted us and made this trip possible!
