Purcellville: Jayden's first camping trip!

So instead of going to the parade and trying to keep a 2 year-old interested in it we went up and camped up by Kelly's. We love going there. There is lots to do and it is close to town so if Doug gets called to work he can go and come back or if we forget stuff that we can't live without we can come back into town. So we stayed there and played.
Karston is not a big fan of water unlike his mom so instead of wasting our money and taking him to the pool I found this little snake sprinkler which after a while he LOVED. We just hooked it up to the hose connection and he had fun going and splashing whenever he pleased.

Dad liked it to. He also is about as fond of water as Karston is. Maybe Jayden will be my water baby.

Speaking of Jayden here is the King sound asleep in his bed! I just laugh looking at this picture. Every time I see it it looks like a baby doll is laying there instead of a live baby!

You can't have to many grandpa's right. Here is Karston playing with Grandpa Dann. They don't get to see their little grandbaby a lot so when they come they try to be able to spend some time with the boys. They played baseball an awful lot!

I was playing around with the camera and grabbed these shots of Jayder bug. Isn't he just so dang cute?

When we are camping Karston likes to do his own hair and decides what clothes he will or will not wear. This day he wanted crazy hair and no pants! Still so handsome though!

It is against all camping rules to go camping and not roast marshmallows and make smores. So Karston was making his and touched the mallow and got all STICKY. But they were sure yummy!

This next picture CRACKS me up. This apparently is what happens when Grammie changes diapers when she is sick. We have never laughed so hard. We were mostly laughing at Karston and what he did once it fell off. The little guy looked down and said "Oh no... I free" I think we sat there and laughed about it for a good 20 minutes before we decided we better put something on before we have a bigger mess to clean up!

I have never been to a driving range and so Doug and I decided to go hit some balls. It really was LOTS of fun. I was amazed at how fast you go through 200 balls. Doug is a pro at skipping them across the water and getting them out at least 250 feet. It was a simple little activity but lots and lots of fun!

We have to always get a family picture. I thought this one turned out pretty cute! If you click on it you can get a better view of Karston's and Jaydens face. I love my little family soooo very much!

This is Karston's chair. He loves to hold Jayden while sitting in it. By the expression on Jayden's face, and the position of his arms he looks like he is preparing for something not so good to happen.

Grammie Janine reading Karston a story to keep him out of the sun for a little while. It was so hot up there.

Craig loved holding Jayden. Craig is Dann and Janine's son. He is such a nice guy and is so cute and fun to watch with the boys. Had to steal Jayden while his mom wasn't around.

Dann feeding Karston some strawberries. It was funny to watch. He had a huge serving spoon and would do the mommy mouth!

We had some patriotic music so we played that and Karston found his own piano. He would climb up there and play away. He would do runs to the very end of the arm rest and then up in the air. Of course it is no fun doing this by yourself so grammie had to get involved. It was soo cute! They gave us a concert about every night!

Just some cute pics of the boys!

This lady is Aunt Helen. She has to be one of the sweetest, most adorable, most loving lady I have ever met. She has the most tender little heart. I should be worried though because her and Doug like to flirt a little bit! Just kidding. Doug loves this lady just as much as I do. He went and picked her up and brought her up so she could see Dann and Janine and spend a little time up there. The night she came up Doug got called to go to work. She was pretty sad about it. She said she was going to start a protest, but she forgot her poster boards and sticks. She was also sad because she choose to come up the day that Doug was cooking. She was planning on eating with Doug and then couldn't. We still had his meal, but no Doug. I love this picture she looks so angelic!
