A few weekends ago Kevin and Benjamin went on a Father/Son camping trip with the church. Kevin took off of work on Friday and they headed out. They were going to be gone until Sunday afternoon. Benjamin was very excited.
He and Kevin usually have a camping trip every year where they get to go out and be alone. Since I absolutely loathe camping, it works for me as well! Last year, when Kevin and Benjamin got home from their camping trip, Benjamin declared, "Mommy, next time you and me can go alone and do your kind of camping at the hotel." Smart boy!
Here are some of the pictures. Since Kevin was in charge of the camera, I don't know exactly what the pictures are of, and went off of Benjamin's description! Beware!
Very happy boy right before leaving for the weekend. He loved his new hat that Mrs. Nae got him for his K graduation!
Benjamin demonstrating how he is going to catch a huge fish. He didn't end up catching any...he said fishing was too boring. ;-)
Benjamin said that this picture is of him and a friend named Sam that he met on the camping trip. He said that they are undoing the tent poles.
He said that this is a picture of him and Sam setting up the tent. Notice how Benjamin's arms are crossed over his chest as he accomplishes this amazing feat!
Benjamin says that he is drinking a Dr. Pepper in this picture. Funny how he doesn't have a soda, but a stick. Perhaps he was wishing he had a Dr. Pepper?
While the boys were away, Olivia and I just relaxed. Friday night a friend came over and played cards while Livi was sleeping. On Saturday, we went out shopping with Grammy Evelyn after having breakfast.
Grammy putting on Livi's shoes because Livi is convinced that I don't know how to do it. Perhaps she finds consolation in the fact that Grammy is just as big of a shoe addict as Livi is!
Livi and Grammy having coffee together. Notice that Olivia has her own sippy, but she didn't want that awful thing!
A quick visit to Sally's Beauty Supply. Grammy insisted that Livi needed a picture here. She said that you can never start too young. LoL.
After Sally's, we headed over to Payless Shoes. I bought Olivia a pair of dress shoes. Grammy enabled Livi's habit by purchasing her 2 other pairs of shoes. It was funny. We walked into the shoe store and they both bolted down the aisles. She pulled down any shoe that was shiny and tried to stick her foot in it. It was like taking her to a toystore! Oh, Olivia had fun too! (snicker)
On Sunday, Olivia and I went to church together. She looked adorable!
Well, that was our weekend. We were glad to have our guys back with us on Sunday. It's not the same without them!
