I love summer! It's my favorite time of year, but it's also one of the busiest times! Between weddings, family portraits, high school seniors, babies and engagement portraits, we try to sneak away as much as possible during the summer to spend some time as a family. Last week, we closed the office Monday and Tuesday to take the kids camping. It's the second time we've been able to go this summer and the kids absolutely love it! Billy told me that he wanted to camp forever. I replied that it would get mighty cold during the winter, he responded, "We'll just wear our warm jammies."
Dani loved playing in the dirt. Every time I'd clean her up, put on some clean clothes, she'd be in the dirt again. Justin & Billy spent most of the time fishing. He said everytime they came back to camp, Dani had dirt in new places than when they left.
Dani sound asleep at camp.
Dani and I walked down to see how the boys were doing fishing. Billy came running up to us.
Dani was equally excited to see Billy!
Billy had a stick on a string that he was dropping down into the water. But, during the trip he did end up catching 9 fish with his fishing pole.
Dani wanted to fish, too. Soon, enough she'll be fishing along side those boys!
Back at camp, we found a lot of pretty flowers!
The state flower: Columbine.
Wild Heartleaf Arnica (Sunflower family).
A wild rose bush.
