day hike- part 3

My goodness, y'all. 
This post is to finish up a series that
I started in April. 
A P R I L.

Quarantine has been such a time vortex for me. 
Like stuff that was 3 months ago
feels more like it was maybe 3 weeks ago. 
All these technology issues have been so
frustrating.

But now I have my blog again.
Aaaaand I ordered another family album, clearing
half of 2016 off my computer. 

Slow and steady progress on these pictures over here.

Ok ok ok. 
Enough babbling.

On our day hike (ages ago)
we had fun teaching the kids
about geocaching. 




Treasures!





Paige scored an old
keychain that looked like a 
nintendo. 


She was happy about it.




Tate picked a spider ring.


Brooke was happy to be snacking.
Again.

I'm telling ya, pack the snacks when
kids are involved. 
They were extra excited to eat out of a plastic
bag since it's not their norm. 
It's the little things in life. 
Also, I might have already mentioned that in a previous
post...but it's been  t h r e e  months.


She sure did dig out the m&ms first. 
Definitely my kid.






The next geocaching jar was harder to spot.
It took us awhile to find that hanging camo
mason jar. 


Digging out his next treasure.







One of our contributions to the jar didn't quite fit.
Oops



Headed back to the truck.





I'm ready to do this again!

deer lease dreamin’

We did it! 
We got a deer lease!!

It’s been a loooooong few years
without one, and I’m so very excited that
we have a spot in the country to
disappear to. 







Some rain to cool us off!



The campers will be parked
just behind the 4 wheelers. 



The best part?
We’ll get to spend time here
with our families AND some our
favorite people!!

This picture makes me so happy. 
It’s the first day trip we took out there...
the beginning of it all!



The little buds are too cute. 





He really does love her this much!



The curlies!







And a little Joe’s Jeans model. 







Our view for the last few weekends:



And our set up! 



Don’t be too jealous of that
sweet wolf mural.
I think Josh needs a matching shirt. 




blast off

Lets get this blog back and running!
Goodness I've missed this...

So let's back track. 
Bear with my while these next few
(or not so few)
posts are crazy out of order!

We were so excited to watch the spacecraft launch!


Tate was definitely the most excited and attentive. 
He even got his astronaut outfit on. 
The frisbee? Oh, that's his "steering wheel."


Houston, we have a problem.


And so we wait...for the storm to pass and hopefully
still have a launch.


Ok, so the spacecraft didn't actually launch that day, 
but we played old launch videos for the kids to enjoy anyway.


Brooke on the look out!



Seriously, this kid was so interested in everything
happening that day. It was so cute.



Feels so good to be back to blogging!
