August 2015

I can't believe how fast time has gone lately.  I feels like August just started. Things were so busy!  We randomly decided to sell our house and that kind of consumed our entire month between getting the house ready to sell, showing it, and then once we signed a contract to sell it the whole process of dealing with inspectors and appraisers.  Then getting our own loan was kind of a process.  It was just a really overwhelming busy month.

We did manage to have a little fun.  We took the kids camping for the first time.  We just went up Hobble Creek canyon for one night.  We were worried the kids would have a hard time so went somewhere close only 20 minutes away so we could come home if we needed to.  We went on a Thursday night and there was hardly anyone there.  It was a lot of fun.  We didn't take enough fire wood so Jordan and Jacks walked around and found firewood for a while which Jacks loved.  We had a little camp fire and made hot dogs and S'mores for dinner.  Link loved the fire he just sat on my lap and watched the fire.  Jacks kind of got a little ADHD and ran around and poked the fire with our roaster sticks.  He was funny he loved throwing wood in the fire which is kind of dangerous but we helped him and he absolutely loved it.  

Jacks loved the tent and went right to bed.  Link had a little harder time but he was pretty good too.  It was kind of ridiculous.  We had an air mattress we'd never used before and when we blew it up it was huge.  It barely fit our tent!  The boys were just on top of me the entire night.  I didn't get a lot of sleep probably only about 1 1/2 but it was still fun.  The boys had so much fun.  They loved sleeping in a tent and in sleeping bags.  They really wanted to go again this summer but we didn't quite make it.

The rest of the month we were just really busy but spent sometime outside and had a little fun.  Random pictures from August.
