Weekend of Camping and Haircuts . . .

We headed up to the Eagles with Mom and Dad this weekend so Troy could work on a few projects with Dad. There is another little boy at camp named Hunter too, our boys have lots of fun together . . .

Here is the new fire pit, we no longer have to stand in mud, HURRAY . . .
Mollie thinks she is 10 feet tall and bullet proof. She doesn't even make a sound when the little dogs walk by, but watch out when the big dogs do, she carries on like an opra singer . . .On Saturday the sun came out for a bit so we headed down to the river. Here is Hunter hurrying to smiling for the camera since it was so chilly . . .
TJ wasn't quite so sure . . .
The boys talked dad into taking them across the river . . . but Troy got knee deep in the water and decided it was too cold . . .
Grandpa Steve found some shade to enjoy the boys playing in the water . . .
Once the boys got used to the water close to shore they decided to throw rocks and sticks for a bit. TJ would throw the same rock and then go and get it . . .
After a lit bit TJ got really cold and wanted to snuggle bug with mom . . .
Whenever we go camping we always make sure we pack the dump trucks. At mom and dad's new spot they are right on a busy corner so I wouldn't let TJ wander with the bigs kids, I was too nervous no one would see him. So instead he hung out in his dump truck watching the kids play. He was content with that . . .The boys love helping their daddy build a fire. Hunter didn't want TJ's help so Grandma Sue stepped in to referee . . .TJ loves taking a sip of dad's beer . . .
It was a fun weekend. I realized while uploading these pictures that I never got a picture of Travis. He found some kids his age at the park and didn't want to hang with us much. That's okay, I am glad he got to have some fun with kids his own age. We went to the Huntsville fireworks Saturday night but the pictures are on mom's camera. I will have to post them at a later time.
The boys were so ready for their summer haircuts. Hunter and TJ love being buzzed like their daddy so after we unloaded the trailer and finished our dinner we pulled out the clippers and went to town. Here is TJ with his famous scowl . . .
Half way thru his haircut TJ wanted to be done so Troy thought it would be funny to buzz his own hair to get TJ distracted for a minute. It was cute, TJ was laughing from his toes. What a good dad my boys have . . .
Once TJ was done he loved touching his new air cut . . .
Jake and Charli were in the mix of things as well, I just love Charli's smile . . .
Hunter boy thought it would be fun to have a mohawk, it lasted long enough for me to take a picture, then he was buzzed just like dad and brother . . .
While TJ was playing we noticed that Troy had missed a few spots, so TJ jumped on Troy's lap to let him finish. Don't mind the gloves either, not sure why the boy likes to play with them when it's 90 degress outside, but hey some battles are just not worth fighting over. LOL!
