Hungry?

Today, shortly after we all got up:

Me: Who is hungry for Breakfast?
Connor: MMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Mom, I'm always hungry, so you don't need to ask me.
Me: Yea, I've noticed.
Connor: I never get full. I'm going to be hungry forever. 

Says the kid who eats EVERY. DAY. like there will be no more food left tomorrow. A bottomless pit. I mean, the kids eats more than I do & he's six. S.I.X! You guys. Let that sink in. I'm going to start a new savings account & call it "Groceries for when Connor is a teenager."

Adventure to the Mountain

We gathered our extended family, and headed up to the Mountain for a little weekend adventure. First stop was the hot tub where the girls were so excited that they could "stand up" all on their own. Best news ever. I think the kids managed 5 trips to the hot tub in less than 48 hours. Surely, that's A World Record. Next stop, the Mountain, of course! We did some exploring first, then headed up to the top on the chairlift. Note to self: It gets windy up there. Like hold-on-to-your-children-so-they-don't-blow-away-windy. However, we still managed to have a snack at the top. Because snacking is a priority on vacation & we don't like to let the weather ruin a good time.

Next up some lake swimming...

And lastly, we hit the adventure park. We rode a giant slide, snow-free sleds, the ponies, rode in "canoes," enjoyed the bounce house, swings, bungee trampoline, and go-carts.

PHEW! After all that adventuring, we were EXHAUSTED, but can't wait to go back again!!

Remember that one time....

...we went camping with three kids who had Hand Foot & Mouth Disease? I was a little worried that this might turn out to be a bad life decision. However, our cousins decided to bravely still welcome us along, and clearly the kids weren't that miserable..

 

 Plus, technically we were "glamping" in this super luxurious cabin. Complete with a bunk bed, a porch, and a roof. If this isn't glamping, I don't know what is.

 Just a little selfie while the big kids & Dads headed out for a hike to the falls.

 Preparing for the ultimate water balloon fight...

The kids favorites were eating marshmallows in ice cream cones, the big water fight with cousins, swimming in the lake, and sleeping in a bunk. I mean, you can't really beat that, right?!!
