First Camping Trip of 2010 - Little Sahara

Of course it didn't take them long to start burying themselves!

Nicole is getting ready to go!

The weather was a little windy on Thursday, but we were still able to have our campfire. Then Friday was a little more windy so we hung out in the Turner motor home and sang church hymns (NOT!) We were still able to have our campfire on Friday. Here is Saturday. Much better!So I heard is snowed on you poor saps that got left behind. Well, here is what it looked like for us!!


Happy boy, Brady!

Classic Dave!!!

Okay, so our last trip of the 2009 season was Labor Day Weekend. We went to wasp haven also known as Utah Lake. Some got in Dave and Lisa's awning and stayed there all winter. When they opened it this trip, the sun warmed those little buggers up and they started flying all over. Who says you can't get exercise while on vacation!!!

Jackson

Okay, so it was Senor Turner's birthday. On Saturday, we did taco and marguarita night!

Aptly decorated cake!


Singing Happy Birthday

When you're that old, it takes a long time to blow out your candles. Partly because there are so many and partly because you have no more lung capacity!

Topher's Riddle Box

For Topher's first grade class, one of the things they get to look forward to is the week they get to do the Riddle Box.

They choose and item to put in the box....

Decorate their box....

then make five clues so that the kids in the class can try to guess what is in there. They bring the box on Monday, then read a clue every day. Then on Friday, they get to open the box and show what was in it.

Here are Topher's clues:


1. It lives in the forest

2. It loves bananas

3. It has fur

4. It lives in trees

5. It can be many different colors


Can you guess???








If you said monkey...................wrong!!!!!
