Getting cleaned up

So this swimming place is about 20 min away from are camp site. It was way fun and a great way to get cleaned up while camping.
This is Preston going down the curvy one all by himself! He wouldn't let me take him down with me at all. He's so brave.

This is me and Carter going down the curvy together. I had to lift him up so he wouldn't go under the water. He loved it! When we'd get to the top to go down he would start kicking his feet and get really excited.

This one is for you Mom! Do you miss this face? He had so much fum camping. It was fun having him there.

The after math

Preston showing his muscles! So strong! He had fun helping cut down the tree and watching it fall.

The guys posing on the fallen tree - Dew vs. Pepsi and the only ones who knows who won is those that were there or who knows what drink Jeff likes.The girls also posing on the tree showing their big guns to prove that girls can cut down trees too! We all took a wack at it.

Camping up at imigration

This is a picture of the family camping up in Idaho. We had a lot of fun! The kids stayed up late every night because they didn't want to be alone in the camper and we didn't want to go to bed early so here we are. I think this was the second night we were there. By like the last two nights I was ready to go to bed earlier with them because Carter did not sleep well at all. So I was getting pretty tired and I ended up drinking a Pepsi everyday. I was doing so good too! I hadn't had one for like three months before that. I haven't had one since I've been back though so I'm back on track.

The big tree that fell

The guys and girls all took turns chopping down this tree with an axe. The guys cut down one before this one but I got there right when it fell so I didn't get video of it. It was fun to do it old school without a chain saw.

Big guns

Look at this big guy just go at this tree, he was tired from cutting down the other one. This one was a little bit bigger around then the other one. He made it look so easy. I swung and missed the first time. Luckily no one got that on video.

The Montana family in town

Some of my family came to town to visit and this picture was impossible to take because Carter wouldn't sit and be cute he wanted to cry and get down. This is my mom and my youngest sister Brooklyn. The visit seemed really short, but we had a lot of fun shopping and getting a makeover together. My only brother Jake moved in with us when they came down to visit. He has been here two weeks already!

Lots of fun!

He was smiling at Great Grandpa Porter in this picture. He was having so much fun opening all the presents from everyone, probably because Preston was in his room playing with all his cousin instead of trying to take them away from him. Preston sure does enjoy playing with all of them though. I guess that's the joy of having another brother instead of a sister. It was a great day and I can't believe a whole year has gone by.

Birthday

Carter had his first birthday on the 15th! He was so cute digging in the cake. I can't find the plug to download pictures so maybe when we get back from camping I will have more time to do this correctly. I'm still trying to find time to figure this thing out. Summer is really busy for us.

That's some good cake!

He loved his cake, I put some gummie worms on it and had to take them off because he kept trying to swallow them whole. It was funny, he looked like a baby bird. Look at those bright blue eyes. I never thought I would have a blue eyed kid. He looks like his brother with the spikey hair. (The date is wrong it was on the 19th that I put this on)
