Zoo Camp

Noah had zoo camp this week and as usual had a blast!  I love that he looks forward to camp each week and gets pretty excited about all his special projects!

Finger Print Giraffe!! 

I just love any project that has their hand prints!!!

Zebra Stripes

Love the lion hat!  Silas and I walked to pick Noah
up from school!  So happy to finally have some
weather that is nice enough to do this!!

Noah wore his lion hat all the way home!  So cute!!!!

Busy Weekend...

Last weekend was a wild one full of lots of firsts!  We started on Friday with a fun day at the zoo with Jason & Victoria followed by Noah's first sleepover (Victoria stayed on Noah's bunk bed with him), we headed out to Tree to Tree for our friend Kenzie's birthday party on Saturday and then took the boys to the theater for the first time to see Cars 2 on Sunday!!  Noah made it through the whole movie while Silas and I made a quick exit about 45 minutes in (good thing we planned ahead and brought two cars :)  Sorry there are so many pictures, Noah and Victoria were just too cute together!!

Silas was did awesome and stayed in his stroller without too
much complaining!  

Taking a snack break!

One of Noah's favorite parts of the zoo!

Climbing the rock wall!  Silas actually got
to get out of his stroller :)

Checking out the dinosaurs!  We were at the
zoo for over four hours (a long time for us) and this
was the first time I have let Noah walk the entire time.
I usually bring the double umbrella stroller so Noah
can catch a ride here and there.  Needless to say
he was seriously dragging his feet by the end
of the day! 

The giant T-Rex!
Both the bigger kids were a little
scared and did not want to go near him so
poor little Silas, stuck in his stroller, got
to be in the shot!

Not quite as scary as the T-Rex!

Is it time to go home yet??????

We were the only ones at the otter tank and he was going crazy
right in front of the window.  Noah and Victoria must have
run back and fourth with him like 50 times!

We ended the day with them getting completely soaked
in the waterfall in the Great Northwest!   

Back at home taking Victoria for a ride in his Jeep!

He even let her drive it (very big deal)!!!

Then she crashed into her dad's car...

The boys at Kenzie's Party out at Tree to Tree!

They had such a great time!  There were lots of grassy fields to run in,
a bounce house, a play giant play structure, lots of rocks and Noah's favorite part - cake...

If you ever find yourself  looking for something really fun to do I would seriously recommend checking out Tree to Tree Adventure Park!  My friend Marissa and her family own it and it is absolutely amazing! I can't wait to go back without the kiddos to play!!!

Bug Camp

Last week we had bug camp and Noah came home with all kinds of buggy treasures!  He learned all about spiders, stick bugs, lady bugs and butterflies and even made his own little bug house!

Sporting his super cool bug hat!

The bug box.  I got a huge lecture about taking the lid off because
all the bugs could get out...

Ocean Camp

We signed Noah up for lots of fun camps all summer long (gotta keep these kids busy)!  He had his first camp a couple weeks ago (Ocean Week) and has been counting the days until his next one!  They are through his school and I think there are about three a month with fun themes like bugs, bubbles and cooking!!

All the kids got flip flop lollipops on their last day!
Probably the highlight of the whole week for Noah
and his sweet tooth!!!

Noah and the GIANT fish he made!

I thought this was a kite but was quickly
corrected and told it was a jelly fish!

Congratulations Uncle Jordan & Aunt Kassie!!!!

Here are a few pictures from Uncle Jordan & Aunt Kassie's 4th of July wedding!  The boys have been pretty pumped about this and were definitely not disappointed (they are going to be counting the days until Uncle Dusty & Erika's wedding in September)!   The original plan was to have both boys be ring bearers but after the rehearsal disaster involving some screaming, a little rock throwing and dirt eating, we decided that Silas was not quite ready for the job so Noah went at it alone and was awesome!  I don't have any pictures of the ceremony yet since we were both in it but I am sure I will get some soon.  It was the perfect day for a beautiful wedding!  We are so excited for Jordan and Kassie!!!

We actually got a family picture for once!!!

Cake time!

Noah "taking a picture" of me taking a picture of him!

Finally taking a break for some cake!

I love the look on Kassie's face in this one!

Showing off his break dancing skills... 

 The kids still dancing like crazy!
This is like at 9:30 p.m. seriously late night for the boys...
The night was complete with a huge firework show and a few
blasts out of my dad's cannon!

Sleeping Arrangements...

I think it might be time to get Silas out of the pack n play and into a big kid bed when traveling...

(he is sleeping sideways in the bed, it is not THAT small,
it just looks pretty uncomfortable)

Dancing Machine!

I've got lots more wedding pictures to come but I have to share this video of Noah's sweet dance moves! He was seriously ripping it up on the dance floor all night long (this literally went on for hours)!!!
