Gentry Safari



Recently I had the opportunity to take a day off work and join my youngest on a field trip to the Gentry Safari. He was excited that I got to come along.






First we did a drive through of the Safari. Caden rode the bus through, and I rode with my sister and her hubby.

After the drive through the students ate their lunch and walked around to see the caged animals up close like the pigs, snake, monkeys, turtles, kangaroos, zebra, and more.


Last, but not least...the petting zoo...

He has always enjoyed the goats.



He took over my camera for most of the day and my sun glasses!


One of his shots of the pigs....so cute!




My favorite is always the monkeys and chimps. This one was the show off!




The highlight of the day...

Mr. Show Off was making 'rasberry' sounds and had us clap for him. So funny!

Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze


This past weekend we headed out to Ozark Corn Maze. This is the first time my boys have been to a pumpkin patch/corn maze. Why have I waited so long? I know the plans always seemed to slip away in the past. I'm so glad we finally went. The boys had a blast!


What's going to a pumpkin patch without finding the perfect pumpkin? Caden thought the small pumpkins were so cute, but decided they would not be good for carving and got a bigger one.
Cameron's perfect pumpkin.

Trying to hit the target with corn! Fun!


The cow train...a bumpy ride.



Inside the corn maze...Cameron's favorite part. After about 45 minutes we made it out. Whew!




There was also a small petting zoo...




...and a bouncy house.



It was great seeing my cousin Brenda and her hubby there! We had a great time as a family and will look forward to going again next year!

Camping Adventure #1

The first week of summer break we decided to go camping at Lake Wedington. We were thrilled that my sister's family decided to join our camping adventure. We are making lots of great memories camping every year. We are also looking forward to our annual camping trip this 4th of July weekend with Michael's family in Oklahoma.

Welcome to Lake Wedington.

10 reasons I like camping:

Our relaxing campsite by the lake.


The kids had a lot of fun riding bikes on the campground. I love that we are away from the electronics and outdoors.



There was a hill and a corner. Being the cautious mom I am, I yell out S-L-O-W down. Well, Cameron decides to obey and slams on his brakes on this corner and wrecks. Thank goodness for all the protection he had on. He actually had elbow and knee pads on at the time too.


Cameron and Sharee decide to hang out in the play tent for a while.



There's always fun with water when we camp. My nephew, Devin was being a little impatient wanting to "get wet". Well, leave it up to Uncle Michael to surprise him.


Time to get really wet!


Swimming makes us hungry. Grilling out is always fun.


Trying to work off their lunch.


My twins trying to do the airplane.



Wooooah here she comes. Watch out boys she'll chew you up! Ha!

My adorable sister just chillaxin...


while Rod man gets the grill going.


Hanging with my sweetheart.

No smores tonight. It's time to make banana boats!


Throw in some dance moves while they are on the grill...


and enjoy! Yummy!


After the kids went to bed we played a card game called Shanghi. We love camping and had a wonderful time! It's a great escape from your daily life. I can't believe as you are reading this we are on our way to another camping adventure. This summer is flying by as we are having fun.

One thing I could do without...my new French manicure bites the dust the first day!

Now it's time for 4th of July toes!

Happy Independence Day! I hope you have a fun and safe holiday.
