Summers here.... maybe?

This is our experiment for the spring.. see if I can start some seedlings inside. This is a little green house and we put lots of things in here including sunflowers, some other flowers jackson picked out, basil, cantalope, peppers and can't remember what else.. (it is bigger than the picture shows). Now the stuff is growing HUGE and I don't know what to do with it???? We will transplant it when we get to the other house.. but amazed that this is even working. Our first camper outing. We went to bring our camper to the resort and after making burgers, exploring a bit and chilling it was time for bed. Jenna was wiped and crashed right away in her bunk.. Jackson.. he was a little more curious about what we were doing outside. We let him come out and roast a few marshmellows on the fire and make smores with gluten free graham crackers that I found (which were delicious by the way.. and EXPENSIVE) He was pretty excited about being a "big boy" and staying up with mom and dad.



Chilling out before bed... Jenna was soo tired.. she wiped out a few times when exploring and has scratches on her cheek and nose.. a black and blue nose.. and was just plain tired.


This is the beach and lake where we are staying. No one is around right now and we came to find out that the water was not going to be turned on yet.. so we kinda "roughed it".. luckly they also have heated bathrooms so mama was happy!! They booey off the area between the boat slips/docks and it is the greatest sandy beach!!! It is a very shallow lake and the kids can run and play in the water without it getting too deep... the fishing is great too from what we hear.. a 3lb bass was caught off the dock this day we were here.

The kids first walk from the camper to the lake.. the lake is in the distance between the trees.


My little strawberry stealer.. we are for sure picking strawberrys again this year since it is one of Jenna's favorite foods.

This day we were not able to go outside.. it was cold and actually started to snow a bit.. that is what the kids were watching.. We love the Dr. Seuss books and there is a part in one where the kids are sitting waiting for their mom to come home... Jackson was reciting that while recruting her sister to sit in on his fairy tale.



Sit sit sit...

My little strawberry stealer dancing to music for me...

I always wanted to try to start seeds indoors but there is only one place sunny enough to do it and I can't think of a way to keep K out of it since its in her playroom!
Camping looks like fun!
