life as a math problem

what you do with your life is only half of the equation. the other half, the most important half is who you do it with.

My mom and I Made her a pretty pink dress up dress, but my mom isnt happy with the way it turned out so it is still at her house. good thing we made it so big maybe it will fit just right by the time she gets it. j.k .

waterfall fun!

while we were camping we went to see these falls and the kids loved kiking up and down them and then we found a fun place we could get in and let the kids splash around.



i was mad that couple behind the kids were taking so long taking their pictures that they are in most of ours too. oh well.

Jason plunking Dahlia in!



the boys kiked a little higher and dally and I sat on this rock, this pic of me is funny, I think.

fishing and hiking


this is our little friend we met while fishing, he is an elephant in case you cant see what we saw.


beautiful mirror lake



jasons aunt karen and grandma torg watching the fishing excitement! grandmas hat and glasses made us all laugh.


brady sitting by the lake



we are not really very good fishers, we caught nothing. Jason was in his spot for about twenty minutes.......no bites. He pulled his pull out and came to help me with something. some little kid walks upto the exact spot jason was at, throws in his line and two seconds later yells, " dad, I caught a fish!"


dahlia and mommy sitting by the lake, Dahlia loved throwing rocks in the water, maybe that had something to do wiht us not catching any fish. she kept bending over right there to pick up rocks. I was so nervous she was going to fall in.



We found a little hiking trail right off the lake. It looked more promising then the fish so we tried it out. I was fun but it got really hot right after I took this pic and I couldnt put dally down on the steep hill, I was hurring to get to some shade!





I found this moss just like this. someone left it there for to tell me they loved me!!










down on the board walk....

camping

Mickey and Dally loved playing in grandmas motor home!!

we were able to go camping with Jason's family!! it was a lot of fun once we got there.... it took us about eight hours to get to the place that should take only two hours at the most. we were following Jason's uncle and cousin up with their motor home and truck pulling a fifth wheel, the motor home and truck started over heating on a small hill, then the motor homes brakes ended up freezing up, so AAA had to come and tow it to a shop. then the truck couldn't make it even down the highway pulling the trailer without over heating so we had to stop and leave the trailer on the side of the road, then no more stops after that. all together I think we stopped about 8- 10 times. Jason's other very kind uncle ended up going and picking up the trailer and bringing it up.


Dahlias favorite thing to do was get Dad to through rocks into the river. she would pint in that direction and say... "raw..........raw....raw..raw" over and over until he would finally take her.

the best part about camping is "Grandma Great Great" or Jason's grandma torg. this is dahlia feeding grandma grapes. It reminded me of the movie "Aladin" when the sultan (jasmines dad) is feeding jafars parrot the crackers.


Mic and Dee goofing off in Brady's tent!


the kids fought over the chair Dahlia is sitting in the whole time!!!


this is the cave Jason and Mickey built for the lion, Mickey was so proud!
We went hiking and fishing while we were there too.... more to follow.
