My little artists

I got these two set up to paint so I could feed the baby and chat on the phone.  While I was watching, they proceeded to get creative.  One of many times today, though this one was the most fun!

They decided that paper was too predictable for their artwork, and moved on to a more creative medium...Their bodies!
 I think they were going for the warpaint / camouflage look.
It took a lot of elbow grease to get that paint off! 

Randomness...


 Wesley got to meet my gramma.  Isn't she cute?  Love you gramma!

 We've been going to the mountains after church for fun...
 I think Trevor is just trying to kill me by making me haul my butt up huge steep hills.  Bring it on!

Here are the falls.  So pretty.  We went up into Blue Rock and Sheep River Parks.



And stopped for a picture in Black Diamond.
A great day!

May long weekend

Peter turned 10 this month!  Happy birthday!  And why can't you ever just smile NICELY for a picture???

We went camping at Little Bow provincial park for the long weekend.  We had to try out our new camper!  The camper was great, the weather was not!  We slept seven people in that camper two nights in a row.  Two littles on the bunk, myself , Trevor and Wes on the table bed (and Harlee too one night) and two littles on the floor.  Peter drew the short straw the second night and got the floor to sleep on.  All night long, he kept kicking open the door and freezing us!  Good times though!


We still love you Peter!
We tried a little fishing.  No bites.  The wind was too strong.
This is what Peter and Alex liked to do whenever they could....play in the fire.  
or chop wood.
Climb trees.  This is a "where's Levi"  picture.  Can you find him?


We did a lot of fire playing...It was the only way to stay warm.


We had a ceremonial curtain burning.  Bye-bye lace curtains.  The fumes just about killed us.
 
I think this is a good look for me :D 
 
 Smile Alex, it's not that bad!


 This is Trevor's favorite thing to do.


 Grampa is enjoying his chocolate bar.


Levi is looking somewhat clean here.  It's a miracle!
And Wesley decided after only two days, that he didn't want to camp in the cold anymore, so I decided we should all pack up and go home.  :D
