So lets start with Thanksgiving. Oh what a good night. We had a special dinner with a couple families at a friends home. We were totally overloaded with good food and crazy kids. It was actually a really relaxed night and I enjoyed myself quite well. After ward all the girls decided to hit up the black Friday sales! That was a story in its own. We pretty much all got what we wanted but waited in line to check out for an hour and a half. Even one than ditched out and me and Amy went hard core and hit up Target and Walmart together. We were a little bit smarter about the line at target and it worked out great. Fun night!

Our family has had the camping bug lately. We have a had blast packing up the tent and the marshmallows and hitting the big out doors.

We couldn't find any camp sites on the beach but we were close enough.

The second time we went we hit up the rain. We spent most of the time hanging out in the back of cars, but the kids had an absolute blast. Soaking wet running from car to car. I was grateful that we had good company and fun story tellers when we could finally sit around the camp fire.

This was our camping spot, in case you were wondering what it looks like camping in Florida.

One day we rented canoes. Dan and I were quite the team. We kept running into people and looked like a bunch of goof balls. Poor Dan, he keep telling me which way to paddle, but my slow pregnancy reflexes and big belly to get around didn't help my paddling skills. Pretty much we were just laughing at ourselves the whole time, while the other families looked like total pros!

Kiddos chugging yogurt before church! My little man is going to be in primary soon! He is having mixed feelings, but I think he will really like it.

We hit up this park over the weekend up north and it was a total blast for the kids. They had a robot exhibit, and a fun little area for the little ones and a outdoor play ground. Our kids went wild and loved it.

Hads was a little bit over obsessed with RTD2(is that his name?) She would laugh like crazy and run around him.

Hayden played with all the robot controls. You could control an arm and have it pick up blocks, or drive a car and all sorts of cool stuff.

Just my little sweety with her acquired pig tails, ready with her "black shoes" for church.//////
