Memorial day campout

We had a campout in the backyard the other night.  Brent and Mo slept in the house, Cash and I made our beds in the tent.  Cash laughed and laughed about calling his sleeping bag a fart sack.  We had a great night of yelling 'S'mores!' for picture taking in place of 'Cheese' and threw in a few 'Fartsack!' cheers for good measure. The neighbors must think we're the biggest hillbillies in America with our tent in the front yard whooping and yelling around the ol' campfire.  Of course the pig farmers below us might give us a good run for our money.
Everyone needs a little Mo.

Fire up the bonfire!!

Say S'mores!!

S'mores!!
Yes!!

They're better than we remember.

Picking out our hike for the next day.

Happiness.

The Steak River

Do bears bite??
Typical family fun....Cash pouting.
Wow -- when I'm not in school, I'm terrible at blogging!  Go figure, I should be studying and I'm blogging instead.  That's what gets the A's....

Ok -- so a little catch up.  I took the kids to Pullman to see Grandma and Grandpa Hobbs and Great Grandpa Hobbs.  We had a great trip!  The kids got to go to the park to feed ducks and play, we went to the Steak River Dam (that's what Cash is telling everyone -- it's really the Snake River for those that aren't sure), and we got to spend some time with the grizzlies.  And don't forget Molly B's Polka Party -- what a great time I had, thanks Grandpa!!  The things I learned from that trip:
  • 2 children under the age of 4 are impossible to keep quiet at 6 in the morning.
  • Maci's screams are louder in a house with low ceilings -- although I would've thought they'd have been muffled in comparison to the echo that our cavern puts out.
  • Rhubarb gives little kids the runs.....don't give it to them raw even if they seem to like it.
  • Owning an all black car with no tinted windows is not conducive to afternooon drives.

Follow me, Grandma.  I got this.
Whine again and I'll toss ya in.  :)
