SMILE

I took the boy's to the dentist on monday. Kenden did such a good job. He layed back in the chair with his shades on, ankles crossed, mouth opened wide. He looked so cute. Tate on the other hand, didn't do so good. He sat in the chair for about 2 seconds before he was off running around checking out the fish. We had to hold him upside down and tickle him to get him to open up his mouth.
I started taking the boys to the dentist early. I am so paranoid that they are gonna have daddy's teeth. Eric's teeth are soft and he has a few problems with cavity's. I am so happy to say that the dentist said there teeth look fabulous. No plaque or tarter! There teeth are spaced perfectly so they won't have to have x-rays til they touch. And... bonus, I don't have to floss them til they touch. Flossing is kind of a pain!!

Siletz camping trip

We went camping this last weekend on the Siletz river near Moonshine, with a few friends. We had such a fun time. We could not keep the boys out of the river. They had a lil boat to peddle around in, a Zipline, horseshoe pit, yard golf, there was so much stuff to do.


We took the lil boat out to look for Crawdads(not sure if I spelled that right) The water was so clear you could see almost all the way down. Tate was leaning so far over he fell in, which we repeatedly told him would happen. Good thing for lifejackets. He listened better for a little bit after that.

The zipline looked like so much fun I didn't have a chance to go off it, but Eric did quite a few times. I didn't get pictures of it which I am totally bummed about, but Kenden and Tate both went off it too. Eric was about to go off and kenden wanted to go to so he held on to Erics neck. I don't think he knew exactly what he was getting himself into. It was like a 30 foot drop. I thought for sure he would come up out of the water coughing up water, but I was so proud of him he held his breathe and came up smiling. Since kenden went Tater had to go. He didn't swollow any water either and came up smiling too. He actually started heading back up the hill wanting to do it again. I'm so glad that my boys don't have a fear for water it's a little scary though. Cause they will not stay away from the water.


Mackensie one of our friends kids, who's 11. Caught some little fish for Kenden and Tate and put them in cups for them to carry around. They were so excited and would not put them down.Can you tell he's excited? Haha! When you tell him to give you his CCCCrrrazzyy eyes! This is what he does. He just makes me laugh!
When we are camping we usually don't get any sleep. Tate will wake up so early and will be soooo loud. and usually, when you tell him to use his quiet voice he gets louder. So I got up and took them for a walk so everyone else in our campsite could sleep. They had too take there latterns with them, of course. We didn't walk very far, but it took us awhile cause we had to stop and look at the cows and horses, Kenden told me that we really needed to find some goats. We didn't find any. We did find a whole army of red ants and we followed there trail searching for there anthill. Kenden told me that the ants were on fire cause they were fire ants. We headed back to our campsite after that. Everyone, but Eric was still sleeping. We loaded the boys up and headed into the huge town of Siletz,:) for some Strawberry milk. The boys love strawberry milk and have it every morning. So most the morning Tate wouldn't shut up about wanting milk... Now.All in all we had a great camping trip. We are definately gonna be going back there.

This was just a cute picture! Who in the heck gave this kid an oreo tho. Daddy probably! Bad Daddy! haha! just kidding. but really.......... Oreo's are bad!

Camping trip in Florence

We went camping this last weekend in Florence with some family. We had tons of fun! The boys just love the beach. They had so much fun looking for sea shells, they even found some starfish. We were sort of a crazy bunch 8 adults, 5 kids, and 6 dogs. There was Eric and I, Kenden, Tate, and Martini. Eric's mom Polly and stepdad Doug, with there dogs Kahlua, and the new little puppy Annabella. His brother Trent and his girlfriend Ashley, with there dog Roque. And Eric's brother Mickey, Summer, Brandon, Corey, and Brooke, with there dogs Jack and Tiki. I can definately say that our neighbors probably hated us.


We spent thursday, friday, and saturday night there. We got rained on thursday night and it rained most of the day friday. It cleared up some and we were able to go down on the beach and play in the waves.


































Kenden and Tate are in love with there grandparents. Everywhere we went Tate had to hold grandma's hand. They really enjoyed going on walks with the dogs. Tate looked so cute walking Annabella, the new Springer Spaniel puppy.



















Tate is such a goofball! He stole my headband and wanted to wear it.




The boy's were so exhausted on the drive home. Especially our lil Patch!
