Jamin Celebrates his Birthday with Friends 2015

It took a while to celebrate with friends because of some busy schedules and traveling but in November we finally got to have Dinosaur themed sleep over! I forgot to mention that at Trunk or Treat at our church, we ran over our camera with our car...yes that's right, we ran over our amazing camera with our car. It is a funny story that I will save but end of October through Christmas were taken on our phones just FYI :)

Jamin wanted to make his own cake! He also had help!

Looks yummy!

Rock climbing because that's what he loves to do!

McDonald's back home!

A simple game of pooping eggs (balloons) to hatch the baby dinos out!

Cake time!

Singing happy birthday!

Things got really silly here...they used the panty hose I got for Dino tail swinging game and decidedto put it on their heads. They had us cracking up at how silly they look.

BAHAHAHAHA

Brushing teeth and getting ready for a camp out in the living room!

Kyle had to go in and work the next morning so I decided to be brave and take they boys to the HomeDepot workshop. Jamin had been looking forward to this one because they got to make Jets. It wasn't our original plan but I thought, why not?! It ended up being a lot of fun and all the boys did great!

Waiting in line to get their kits!

We decided to skip the busy tables and form a circle on the ground so I could help as needed.

The most anxiety filled part....paint. Most of the boys did well...I think most of the paint on the clothes came from wet paint that was already on the table that they leaned into.

After the workshop we went out to a park to fly Jamin's new remote control plane. Kyle was able to meet up with us by then!

After dropping of Nathan and Josh we went back home to play with the hotwheels ramp they got Jamin!

Wonderful little company!

Yesterday I had the honor to watch Nathan. Nathan's parents are Matt and Sonya, friends from our small group at church. We had a blast all afternoon. Both the boys didn't take naps so I thought it was going to be a rough afternoon but I think they got energy from one another. I was nervous for dinner time too but they both did great. Both ate like champs...even ate their vegetables! I put these two to work right away lol Busy building something great! We went outside for a bit. It was hard to keep these two together in the front so we headed out back! Nathan loved exploring! Showing me a sweet rock that he found! Jamin exploring too! Wondering where he should go next. There are so many things to see in our backyard The boys looking at the rocks and weeds lol Nathan showing Jamin the treasure (weed) that he found! We played on the swings for a while too. One would be in this swing while I held the other in the other swing! (Sorry my...

I couldn't really think of a title for this post so I decided to just states the dates lol. Last week Jamin and I went to Focus on the Family with our friends Sonya and Nathan. I just got done reading Bringing Up Boys which was written by the Founder of Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson. Although Focus on the Family is a place I would hear about while growing up, I really didn't know a lot about it. My friend Sonya went to their Institute and so our trip planning began to go visit it! Group picture after taking the tour We can never get a great shot of the boys lol These were taken in their really awesome play area! Love this picture! Stroller parking!!! A smile that makes my heart melt everytime! Jamin and Nathan Mommy was way too big for this little boat lol Silly faces We also went to the zoo with Sonya and Nathan last week. Here are a few pictures! We even go the moose in the picture! Jamin got scared of the big hippo :( ...

Road Trip Part 5

Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous! Just driving in Harvey! We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
