Fish Update

Sadly, Mickey and Donald Jr. have died.

So have Sunny and Henry, Jones, Jr. 

So I just spend another $8 on more fish...

Boyo got dalmation mollies that he promptly named Zebra and Tiger.

Girlie got sunburst platys that she named Sunburst and Burstie.

And KK got black mollies that she named Goldie and MoonStar. 

And she told them that if they died, it's okay because she can just buy more.

Camping

We recently took the kids camping for the first time.

We practiced in the backyard.





We loaded the car and I thought I was ready. 




And still, nothing prepared me for how cold it would be.  Or how filthy.  Or how fun. 
Not something you see everyday.



Bug hunting


Middle of nowhere and the kids are still plugged in.



Uncle Kyle tried to teach him how to start a fire with his toy magnifying glass.

Swimming in the lake = bath


Chopping firewood.  With trowels.
