Feeding the ducks

Madi loves to feed the ducks and fish at the Crossings:

Rock wall

Caleb is very determined and will not give up! He would not stop trying until he made it to the top of the wall:

The slide!

Im not sure who had more fun on the slide, Josh or Madi?

Go Caleb!

Caleb practicing:

Riding a two wheeler!

Caleb asked us Monday night when he would be able to ride a bike with no training wheels like the bigger kids. Daddy said we can go right now! Much to our surprise he did better than expected. He practiced again Tuesday night and by Wednesday he was on his own!

A boat ride

Aunt Kris offered Ava and Caleb a boat ride after dinner one day up at camp. Someone ended up covering the boat and putting it away before they had a chance to take a ride,so they had to settle for a paddle boat instead of the speed boat.

Gavin loves to play peek a boo!

Playground!

We headed off to the playground for a picnic dinnner. Gavin loved trying to climb up the slide :

Daddys Chair

Grandma found Daddy's rocking chair from when he was a kid a brought it over. The kids love to sit in it.

Ava's surgery

Ava had to have her tonsils and adenoids out in July! Here are a few pics from my cell phone:

Stuck in a chair!

Camping!!

The kids were very excited about our first camping trip and sleeping in a tent! We could have pitched the tent in the backyard and they would have loved it. Gavin did not like the feel of the grass on his knees and crawled around like a monkey for the 2 days we were there!

Spaghetti!

Gavin loves his food!!!

Picnic at the park

We enjoyed a picnic at the park with papa. It was a little windy but the kids had a great time in the tree maze and on the playground!
