Fathers and Sons Camp-Out

Last weekend was the fathers and sons camps out. So me and Jayden loaded up our stuff and headed out for an overnight stay. Amanda mentioned to Jayden that we were going camping at about 10:00am. Which turned out to be a mistake. It took some serious convincing to get Jayden down for his nap. He was ready to go camping now!

DINNER!

We grilled chicken and ate dinner on the tailgate of the truck. Jayden really enjoyed the capri-suns we brought to drink. He had never had one of those before this trip. You can see our tent in the background.

HANGING BY THE FIRE!

After we finished our dinner we headed over to hang with the others. Sitting back and observing I was able to catch Jayden's stealth-like ninja skills in action as he swiped an entire box of little debbie snacks off the picnic table with anybody noticing.


After returning the box to the rightful owner, he asked nicely and got to have one.


He actually sat still for about five minutes while he enjoyed his pre-assembled s'more.

FIRESIDE!


Jayden sittin in his chair and enjoying another capri-sun.


Jayden wasn't seriously amused by the song singing so he found a log to be his friend. He spent about 15 minutes jumping back and forth over this log. I couldn't tell in the dark, but this log had spent some time in the fire and made for one seriously dirty child.

BEDTIME!
Jayden was really exicted to sleep in his sleeping bag. At about 5:30 pm he requested that we head to our tent and go to bed. I made him wait a little longer before bed time. At about 9:15 pm he finally convinced me it was time for bed.


Jayden has clean cloths and his pasi, he is now ready for some sleeping.

After about an hour of laying in the tent and not sleeping, I pulled out the camera and tried to take a picture of the both of us. This was the best I could do.

Jayden's New Toy, and a few other things :)

Jayden got a swing set yesterday, I found it on Craig's List, it was an awesome deal (and we just happened to look at the exact perfect time!!! He loves climbing all over it and swinging (they are just his size). Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!!

Life has been very busy lately, I had a 3 week training course that we have been working on for over a year. Fortunately both grandmas were able to come and help with Jayden. In the process we were also able to see Grandpa Byron, Uncle Christian, Mamma and Pappa Hunnicutt, and Auntie Amanda. Thanks to everyone for your help during this busy time. It was great to see everyone. Here are a few pictures, we didn't seem to get many this time.

Speaking of being behind, I am (what's new). Grandma Vicki and Aunt Katie came up for easter, here we are dying easter eggs.

The picture below is just because I like it. It's mother's day so I thought a picture of Jayden and I was appropriate. I also want to say happy mothers day to my mom and Vicki, and my grandma. We love you all, and the longer I am a mom the more I understand the sacrifices that you made for your children. Love you!
