To show for it....

We spent almost the last full week camping and what do I have to show for it....
Lots of mosquito bites
Lots of dirty clothes
Grass that needs to be mowed
Tired kids
Dirty camper
dirty car
and NO PICTURES...I forgot the camera...

On the positive side....
tired kids
stock in Calamine lotion
happy kids
relaxed mom

I'll take it!

Father's Day h2o FUN!!

Since we have so many father's in our family now...we have to get together those that we can...when we can (sadly Brian had to work)....so Friday we got together in Loveland and had some fun at the water/sand park then to Mom and Dad's for a BBQ. The water was COLD...and it was in the 80's....the sun felt extra good when we got out of the water.
Mom and Nate "undercover".....

Happy Birthday Brian

We celebrated with homemade ice cream cake (compliments of Tyler, Karen and Mom)...it was delicious! I think the kids liked it too....but it was hard to tell!

Nate after some cake!Isaac followed suite......yum!

Who knew it would be so delicious to be old?......:)

The whole France Clan

Kailee decided she was going to take a family photo...she told us where to sit then she took a picture....Pretty good for a 5 year old!

Then we set up the timer and took one of everybody...it was great to have Karen and Tyler home...we might drive them crazy, but we love them!!

Crash and Burn

The kids must of had crazy fun at Grandma's this weekend. They didn't
make it five miles.

Happy Birthday Isaac

Super cake! He's three.

Auntie Karen & Uncle TyLLLer visit....

Nothing better than morning waffles and LEGO play!! All before 8am! Better than last night's lost luggage ......Welcome Home Karen and Tyler...we missed you!
Nate was so excited to hang out with you...he couldn't even tear himself away to make it to the bathroom! Ouch. Hopefully the rest of the day will be better.....can't be worse than Tyler's yesterday....but his luggage finally was dropped by the house early this AM...:)....and
hopefully Tyler will make it to the bathroom today without incident.....we know he's excited to be here...
