| Camping in style! I sent them with four layers on thinking there was no heat but I was wrong. |
 |
| Getting the campfire started. |
 |
| Hot chocolate and more! |
 |
| Breakfast this morning.....mancakes. |

 |
| The boys from their troop that attended...missing two. |
 |

 |
| This is why Annie loves Sam....he takes a bite, she takes a bite, he takes a bite.....you get the picture. |
 |
| Do they come any cuter? He found his own little seat. |
 |
| Mommy opening her birthday present. (Nathan is rubbing his nose though it looks otherwise) A new watch! |
 |

 |
| His spot in the kitchen...notice those locks...they are now gone! |
 |

 |
| Uncle David and Sam. David has a way with little kids. They all like him. |
 |
| Hm...how do I get to that cake? Just wait until they all start talking again. |
 |
| Half-way point in Springfield to get Nathan who stayed on two more nights in CP though it was Thomas' turn. Thomas is getting more and more attached to his mom and his home. In fact, tonight they are to go camping with their Dad and the boy scouts. First thing Thomas did when I woke him up this morning was shed a few tears saying he didn't want to go tonight. I told him he would be disappointed with himself if he didn't go. |
 |
| Our first little snow storm. |
 |
| Thomas still loves to clear and shovel though this storm only needed a broom. |
 |
| Enough snow to make a snowman. |
 |
| Aren't big brothers great? |
