Mmmm...Chocolate!

So...This is what happens when Broc watches the kids! Lexie and Connor were being really quiet so I knew they were up to something. When I got to the kitchen this is what I saw. They were both eating the chocolate powder by the handfuls and they were loving it! Then Lexie started throwing it at Connor. Broc couldn't believe that they got the chocolate mix off the counter. Sometimes I think that they surprise him with how smart they are.

I've been really sick the last few days so Broc has had to take care of Lexie and me (with some help from Mandy). He has also been cooking and cleaning. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband to take such good care of me! Today he said to me, "I don't know how you do this all the time, I've been doing it for three days and I'm exhausted!" It's so nice that he realizes that staying at home with Lexie can be just as hard as going to work and that I don't just sit at home watching T.V. and eating Bon Bons all day. I would also like to say, "Thanks" to my sister and our parents for helping us out over the weekend and while I was in the hospital. We love you guys so much!

More pictures of camping Labor Day weekend...

Here are some more pictures from our camping trip. These were taken on a four-wheeler ride that we went on to Gold Stone with my parents, Mandy and the boys.

This was an old house that we came across it was still in really good condition and it had indoor plumbing!

So...I'm not sure what this thing that the kids are playing on but they loved it.

My mom took this picture for us and she had stand in the ice cold water to do it. Thanks mom!

I love this picture of the kids, except for Lexie's crazy hair. She decided that she didn't really need to have her piggy's in anymore so she pulled them out.

Connor looks so happy!

Happy Birthday to me! (and Mandy)

Friday was me and Mandy's birthday. Since it fell on Labor Day weekend we decided to go camping. Broc took off work Friday so we went to Tendoy on Thursday night. We had so much fun! On Friday we went on a four wheeler ride up past Gilmore and into Meadow Lake campground. It was so cool to see all the old houses and buildings. We found some old mines, it is crazy to think that people actually went down in them. They were basically holes with little logs going across to help brace the walls. When we got to the campground we couldn't believe how pretty it was. We stopped at the campground to eat lunch and let Lexie play by the water. She loved to throw rocks into the lake. She wanted to get in the lake and play 0but we didn't have a change of clothes for her so she didn't get to. Here are some pictures of our ride.



I think this building used to be the general store.



This was an old house, I couldn't even imagine living in a house this small! I guess I shouldn't complain about the size of my house.





This is a picture of one of the mines.





These were taken at the Meadow Lake campground.



Lexie is such a daddy's girl!
