Spring Soccer

Cody finished up his

2014 Spring Soccer Season

this weekend.

 

 

Scout Camp

Well, a week at Boy Scout Camp

didn't go so well.  Our little

camper only lasted until Monday

about midnight.  Then we made

the trip to go and pick him up.

 

I knew it would be rough on

him.  He said he just got too

home sick and didn't sleep at all.

 

 

He really needed this camp out,

so we talked him into going back.

He was pretty ok with it.

 

I drove him back

down Wednesday morning.

 

 

 

He hated the small tiny

A frame tents.

He said there just was no

room in them.

 

 

His favorite thing to do was

swimming!  That surprised me.

He is not a great swimmer.

 

He tested as a non swimmer, but

by the time he left they had him

as an expert beginner.  He said he

was so proud of himself.  :)

 

 

The least favorite part was the

sea weed clean up out of the lake.

He said it was soooo gross.

They had to pull several

leaches off of themselves

after they were done.  Yuck!

 

 

I think they missed each other!

 

 

Seeing what all they can find

in the lake.

 

 

 

Rylee took us on a nature hike.

He showed us poison ivy and

a berry you can eat that tastes

like lemonade.

 

 

 

Our little camper is exhausted and

sunburned and soooo excited to be home!

 

Time with this Guy

I got to spend lots of time

with this guy this week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We did lots of lounging.

Cody LOVES Jaws!

He never gets to watch it because

his brothers don't really like it.

So we did a Jaws marathon.

Jaws 1-2-3-4 

 

Look at our garden grow!

Our garden is seriously growing!

 

 

 

We had to add tomato cages to all

four of our tomato plants.

 

They all have the cutest tiny

green tomatoes growing on them.

 

All 6 of our pepper plants

have tiny pepper nubs growing.

 

This jalapeno plant has

2 actual pretty decent peppers

growing on it.  Nothing tastes

better then a home grown pepper!

 

 

The strawberry plants are

hanging in there.  We had lots

of pink flowers on them a couple

weeks ago, but not much came out

of them.  If we do get any strawberries

they are no bigger then my finger nail.

 

We have never had much luck

with strawberries.  I just haven't

found the secret yet.

 

 

The carrot sprouts are coming

in nicely.  I hope they do good

in this container.  So far so good

I guess.

 

 

Look at our okra!

 

For being so hard to find,

it sure has grown the best.

I really didn't think we would

find any.  I guess now I need

to start looking for a

pickled okra recipe.  :)

Father's Day Weekend

 

KC had a Friday off!

 

We decided to mark off

#26 from our Bucket List.

- Go to some Garage Sales -

 

Rylee was not impressed with

the old rotary phone we found.

He couldn't believe it took

that long just to type in a

number.  He didn't have

time for that.

 

 

KC and Cody decided to try

to do some riding at the river.

I think you could say it was muddy!

 

 

 

We also marked off

Go To The Drive-In.

 

How To Train Your Dragon 2

I love this series.  My little

Ry is Hiccup!  Especially in

the first one.  Love it!

 

 

My little skinny goes to

Boy Scout Camp today.

 

All Alone!

For 6 Nights!

No Mom - No Dad -

No Nana and Grandpa.

 

He has never been away alone

for longer then a day or two.

 

I am not doing very well

with letting him go.

 

 

 

 

We snuck out while the others

were still asleep and played

some fetch and drank some

hot coco out front.

 

 

Father's Day lunch with

our handsome Snook.

 

 

 

And then it was time... 

 

He was really excited to go.

 

 

Cody even gave him a hug

and told him he loved him and bye.

 

 

 

 

He is spending a week with

some of his best friends.

I know they will have so

much fun!

 

 

 

And ending Father's Day

with a little daddy pool

shenanigans.
