Just some pictures

These are just some pictures from camping last weekend at Strawberry Resevoir!
Matt took Abby on the 4-wheeler! She loved it. She kept saying "Faster! Faster!"

Abby - my 3 year old just may be potty trained!

I am so happy to say that I think Abby - my 3 year old - is potty trained! It started 4 days ago.. I told her all of her diapers were gone. She said we should go to the store. I told her they were gone at the store too. Then I asked her where she was going to go pee and poop. She said "in the potty". The first day she peed and pooped in her underwear all day. The second day she would pee just a little in her underwear but stop herself and run over to the potty to pee. The third day she didn't have one accident!! I am so proud of her. I think it was really just her deciding that she wanted to be a big girl. I've tried unsuccessfully in the past to potty train. She just wasn't ready. Not that I'm expecting this to continue so perfectly. I know she will have accidents... but it is SOOOOO nice not having two children in diapers! Yay!!

Camping, Camping, all day long..

We have had our share of camping for the summer! :) We went to Missouri for my family reunion. We stayed in a cabin at a campground. It was so nice! Now don't get me wrong, it was SOOOOO humid! The humidity made it pretty sweaty for all of us. But, it was great to see my brothers and sisters and parents and all the kids. It's been 6 years since all the siblings have been in one place together. The only bad part was that because it was so hot it was hard to hang out all together. Next time we'll know to reserve a meeting room or somewhere we can meet all together inside with air conditioning. I think we'll be doing these reunions every 5 years. We'll get better with practice!

Then just this last weekend we went camping at Strawberry Resevoir with Matt's family for their family reunion. It was hot during the day and cold at night. We had a lot of fun up there. Matt took Abby on a 4-wheeler ride. Apparently she loved it! She kept telling him to go faster. We had a great time with everyone. I got a cold or something while we were up there. So, now I'm sick.. it stinks!

I don't have pictures of either event. I left my camera in Missouri. Luckily someone turned it in and the resort has mailed it back to me. Hopefully I get it and it doesn't get lost in the mail!
