some extra's

The first 2 weeks of Feb. have been super busy ... Cold Weather, Warm Weather, Getting Sick,  Kinda- Healthy, Go to preschool, Nope Still Sick, Allie's Birthday, Try preschool again Recovering from being Sick.  Everyone's been sick so it's not just us - thankfully!

So here's just some random pic's.....

I bought these train gingerbread sets at an after Christmas sale for $2
It was a fun messy activity for us to do as a family!



Super fun project when it's cold outside!
  

We play with the trains when we're sick!


We play tea party when we're sick!



We try to get dressed, but sometimes it just doesn't happen!


We use the crockpot and get good at taking
medicine when we're sick!


And ... we try to smile through all the boogers that
tend to creep in and try to steal our joy!

1st Family Camping trip

Our fist family camping trip booked the 2nd week of December when it was 
in the 70's. So... surely January 24th would be warm too!
 Uhhh WRONG - hey we were all troopers and did have
a memorable 2 nights camping
at Yogi Bear in Waller, TX!


Cooper and Allie loved the huge pile of leaves! 
Wet socks and shoes all weekend - but gotta love that 
old fashioned fun!



We brought 2 stacks of firewood but it was so cold 
we used it all by the 2nd day!
We all hunted down more and Lee and Cooper
chopped away!

Cooper chopped wood for hours with 
the hatchet! We were a bit concerned about
chopped fingers but we got over ourselves.
Besides that, he loved being like Dad!


Ok, so the amenities at Yogi Bear
are pretty cool.  Kinda like resort camping!
Lee and Cooper at the arcade.


Allie wanted to do it too!


An indoor Tot-Spot for babies - 5yr olds!
Awesome!


We love air hockey!



Cooper loves reading about Daniel Boone too
Maybe it's because of the hat?





Wish we could have gotten a few more pic's but we had a
great 1st camping trip with a desire to go again in the spring!
