Camping @ Woods Canyon Lake


This past weekend we went camping with my family. We had a great time being in the beautiful mountains. It was fun to take our kids and let them see what it's like "roughing it". We just spent one night, which was just long enough (especially since Caden would only sleep when laying in my arms!) We had fun sitting around the fire and roasting marshmallows to make smores. Lexi wanted to roast a marshmallow, even though all she wanted to eat was the chocolate! That's my girl.

We also went down to the lake and spent some time fishing. Clint isn't a big fisherman (because of an experience when he was younger, where he felt really bad for the fish he'd caught), so my Dad and I took some time to fish with Lexi. We didn't catch anything, but still had fun!

Big Helper!


Okay, so Caden comes running the second he hears the dishwasher open. He actually helps me unload the dishes, though. It's great! I'll stand by the drawer and he'll hand me the silverware. He doesn't quite understand why, when I'm trying to load the dishes, that he can't take them out at that time too. I took the picture to show him when he's 16 and wants nothing to do with chores, that he actually used to like to help around the house!

ABC & 123


Lexi began preschool last week. She loves it and is doing well. It's hard to believe I have a daughter whom I can drop off and leave her by herself. I have to admit that it's been nice to have a couple of hours where I am lugging around only 1 kid. She is learning all of the sounds each letter makes and how to write the alphabet and her numbers. She is so smart!

Labor Day 2007

This weekend we went to Pinedale where our friends the Pearce's have a cabin. It was great to be able to let the kids run around outside and enjoy the 70 degree weather. Lexi had fun playing with Rylan on the tire swing, the playground and the playhouse inside. Clint and I rode quads and Caden had fun doing what boys love must, playing in the dirt! We had a fabulous time and definitely didn't care to get back to the phoenix heat.
