Birthdays, Camping, Etc.


Happy Belated Birthday to Rick!!!
(Don't worry I remembered yesterday, just didn't have time to blog...)

Rick turned the big 2-8 yesterday and we had a fun day celebrating as a family. Carson and I cooked him breakfast and let him sleep in, and then we opened presents, went to church, and then we cooked dinner here and had his parents over. Carson had a great time helping Rick open his presents (he calls them "Christmas")
I made Rick a quilt for his birthday with peices of lots of his old shirts, etc. Rick and Carson had fun hiding underneath it:)

Carson is developing his own style..... maybe mom's shoes might have to go.....

Since I am such a pathetic blogger, I am blogging these pictures of our last hurrah as a threesome a week late:) Rick and I decided to take Carson camping at a campsite about five minutes from our house. We loaded up our car with a tent and plenty of food etc. and headed off. It was sooo much fun!! Carson had a blast playing at the park, cooking hot dogs over the fire, sleeping in the tent in a sleeping bag with mom and dad, and fishing the next morning with daddy. The only not so amazing part was that the ground was a little hard for my 8 plus month prego self, but it was well worth it, great family bonding!!




Carson thought the tent was the coolest thing ever:)
He helped his dad collect some wood for the fire, we cooked breakfast over the fire in the morning, and had some s'mores.....mmm yummy!!!

I loved that picture of carson in ohly his diaper, hat, tie, and shoes. It looks like one of those baby calendar pictures that are black and white...so cute! I can't believe it's warm enough to go camping wherever you are! :) sounds like a blast, and what a trooper to go so late in pregnancy!

Awesome job on the quilt. That is such a great idea. Nate has so many shirts that he can't part with. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
