Two Hot Mamas

So my friend Kristin and I had this AWESOME idea to take our 4 kids camping with no dads. And if I do say so myself we rock! It was so much fun. It was Spring Break and decided 2 days 2 nights in the wilds of Texas was defiantly the best way to spend it. We went to Eisenhower State Park. Set up camp, cooked, hiked, threw rocks, and made a few necessary trips to a nearby Walmart and Sonic (cause I needed a Coke y'all).

All 6 of us-seriously how cool of moms are we!!!

The one and only picture I was able to get of all 4 kids together.

Look!

Not sure what they were doing.

Kristin brought an awesome surprise for me, but I actually never got to sit in the hammock:)

S'mores!

Mmmmmm-it was St Patrick's day thus the green polish. Oh and we did have a visit from a Leprechaun. He knew who's camping chairs was who's and put cool little toys in them for the kids.

The best moment for me of the whole trip. Cuddling with Grey in front of the campfire.

So cute the first night Grey could NOT believe that I was going to make him sleep in the tent. He kept saying, "Go home, Grey got home to Grey's house." Second night he was a pro! This was (I am so ashamed to say) was his first camping trip. By two Lucy had spent more time hiking and camping than most adults. Sorry Grey but I'm you liked it and your cool new orange sleeping bag.

AAHHHHHHH

I don't know if anyone is still reading this but I will get back into it. I lost the cord to my camera so downloading pics just hasn't been happening. Yes I could buy a new one, yes I go to Target frequently but no I NEVER remember to buy one. But one GREAT bit of news is that I was accepted to the University of Utah for Fall 2010. Yep that's right I will finally become a Running Ute and can hardly wait to wear my red proudly. Don't ask when I will be done-haven't talked to the transfer people yet. But yeah! I'm really doing it. So far I have gotten some great advice from my friend Kelly. 1. Don't take a rolling backpack to school 2. Don't take a doughnut cushion to sit on no matter how hard the chairs are 3. Don't wear a blazer with pads on the elbows or the other students will think I am the professor. Kind of sucks to be the old mom lady of the class (you have to admit we all hated them in our classes). But it rocks to be doing what I have always felt so strongly about finishing.
