Thanksgiving 2014 camping trip

Happy Thanksgiving from the Lewis' !!! Last year we went camping for Thanksgiving and we were so excited to carry the tradition on. This was a great weekend away from the craziness of life and our kids have so much fun being out in nature. There isnt a better sound then to hear your kids laughing non stop as their brothers and dad push them on the rope swing and as we find walking sticks and try to cross the water without getting wet. I love that our family loves being outdoors together and hope this tradition lasts for many many years!!!

I love sitting around the fire, telling stories, getting dirty with marshmallows and hot chocolate and seeing how fast the sticks can burn.

Its also my favorite to see them just lay on the ground and not care about getting dirty and enjoying the world we have been given. The weather was amazing and only in arizona could you go camping in Novemeber and be able to play in the water and act like its summer time.

This was Josh's Talent and we spent a few hours, stacking rocks.

Funny things from the Lewis Boys

*Josh stayed home from work the other day because he wasnt feeling very good. Jarom was out in the pool and he was trying so hard to backfloat. We heard him talking to himself and then he came up out of the water and grunted and said" i just cant do it, i am having issues" Josh said what did you say jarom, I'm having issues!!! I laughted so hard. the things Jarom says.

*The other day Jarom was watching TV and the show was talking about having a new baby. Jarom turned to me and said "mom I want a new baby!" I told him that Cole was our baby. He told me that cole wasnt a baby. I asked him what kind of baby he wanted and he said a GIRL!!!

* Cole loves to play with Jarom. Way more then Jarom likes to play with Cole. My only problem is if Jarom gets annoyed by Cole he tries to beat Cole up. When Jarom does this Cole just laughs, so it makes Jarom do it more and sometimes even harder. I have my work cut out for me when they get older I just know it.

* If I do something that Jarom doesnt want to me do or I dont do it right Jarom will say " YOU STINKER"

* Josh put in our new lighting in the kitchen a few weeks ago and the next day after it was done I showed Jarom and he said, " WOW, I so excited."

* Cole is getting better and better at feeding himself. He finally will drink from a cup by himself and loves to feed himself. However everytime he is done taking a drink he just drops it on the floor. We will have to work on his table manners. He is also very noisy when he eats, he smacks him lips like crazy. I guess I cant complain.

* Jarom's new bike has rockets on it and everytime he wants to ride his bike he asks, " Can I ride my spaceship bike" the only thing is when he asks it sounds like he is asking to ride his bishop bike.
