Father/Son Campout

Last weekend was once of the funnest weekends I've ever had. It was the Father and Son Camp out up at Farragut State Park on Lake Pend Oreille and it was beautiful. The weather was also the best of the year and made for almost perfect conditions.

Laura brought the boys to CDA so I did not have to backtrack and that was awesome. It was also the first problem as we realized that she had forgotten my bag. Who needs clothes anyway! Well, we loaded up and headed north. Short stops for some grub and we made it. We were the first ones there so we got a great spot and everyone else showed up within like 10 minutes. I made the boys set up first and then we headed down to the lake with some friends to play.

The lake was low but beautiful. We had a great time throwing rocks, finding treasures and from the picture above -- enjoying a rope swing we found.

Tyler was my trooper. When his older brothers ran off with their buddies, Tyler was left to show Dad around. He didn't seem to mind too much but when he walked in to the lake with his socks on -- I knew he was having fun! The advantage of hanging with Dad was he got his picture taken more!

Another bright note was that in his excitement to go camping -- Tyler left his bag and sleeping bag in the garage! OOOPS!

That evening we had a great time with a nice fireside and and then just a few marshmallows.

Ryan also found his favorite part of camping -- the outhouse:

The boys were also very excited to establish the NEW WOLFE PENN CT here in and we were very excited to have our neighbors join us. Our own fire pit was a great source of MORE marshmallows and lots of fun.

But the best part was the next day! We had a great breakfast and actually had fun breaking camp (okay - DAD broke camp but the boys had fun playing) but it was fun. Then it was off to the Hunter Boys new family sport -- FRISBEE GOLF!

Dad smoked them all but there is no question the boys are up for a rematch and soon will be beating their father!

Home and lots more fun for the weekend - but that is another BLOG!

Hot Summer Days

With the warm weather -- out came the swimsuits and the street has become chaos once again!

Summer Hair

Well -- when Corey (who doesn't have a lot of hair already) asks for a haircut, you never know what you are going to get.

I even tried to bribe this sexy guy to wear this style to school for one day but with Corey's love of attention -- he refused. Oh well -- maybe next time! I bet I can get Ryan to do it this summer!

SPRING has hit Wolfe Penn Ct.

Just some fun shots from the hood!

Kate's Room!

Now -- most of the time it is better that the rest of the world not see what is in Kate's room but as she is helping me type this morning -- she is insisting we put some of her pictures on the site this morning. So - to that said:

Kate loves shoes and she is willing to share with the neighbors:

And Kate had to have this picture from her room added - she loves her brothers!

FOOD!

I don't know why but as I loaded the pictures on the camera - I found a wide variety of food pictures! I think that explains why we have to work out so much!

Tyler Turns 6

Tyler turned 6 on the 29th of April. Tyler was so excited he couldn't wait and decided to have his friends party the weekend before. Many of Tyler's friends were able to make it and they had a blast. As friends arrived -- Ryan gave them a demonstration with his "speedstacks" and then let all of the boys try them.

After the cups -- the guys were off for a GPS scavenger hunt. Although the GPS proved tricky to use, the boys had no problems finding all of the hidden balls.

Then is was time for presents and ice cream! Tyler's friends were very generous and Tyler wants to say thanks again for all the great gifts!

And finally -- what party would be complete without some silly games! The boys headed for the basement where they raced to use an entire roll of toilet paper to wrap Ryan and Tyler as mummies. Unfortunately - the mummies escaped and finished off the party with some Nintendo!

Thanks again to everyone who came and for the good fun!

Oh -- Tyler had a family party too but we made him wait until his real birthday for that one! Even though Kate had a hard time not "helping" with all the presents, once again Tyler made out like a bandit!
