End of Summer Fun

 I currently keep up a few different blogs including one for Kinley and Easton. I like to make a scrapbook from our blogs at the end of the year. While I love the idea of them each having their own space I find myself posting duplicate pics and similar posts.With that in mind and the thought that soon our new edition will arrive (8 weeks and counting!) there is NO way I can keep up with so many blogs. SO I am making my life simple and will be updating only this blog and printing ONE book at the end of each year :) Also feel free to add this blog address to your feedly or whatever blog reader you use (since Google Reader is sadly no more). This blog's URL is http://livinlittlelovinbig.blogspot.com Here's to simplifying!!

We got in an awesome camping trip a few weeks ago and hopefully will squeeze one more in before summer ends (unless of course I decide camping at 36 weeks pregnant it just not working, haha).


This girl is OBSESSED with chairs! Up, down, up, down, up, down, you get the idea. Any kind of chair will do (and stairs as well)


YAY for a Camp Chef stove and hubby who loves camping cooking!


BIG trees, tiny girl.




My kiddos would live outside if we let them. Every time we come in Kinley throws a grand mal tantrum, EVERY TIME. Here are some pics from Grandma's last week. They had fun making "dirt angels" and "planting peas".


 I was getting lunch ready and I turned around to see this. Oh how I love my kiddos. Sidenote: Kin is shirtless because she had just eaten a blue crayon and destroyed her shirt. Easton will NOT take this frog outfit off unless seriously forced. And he stuffed his belly so he could like his Mama does right now.


Nathaniel has always cut Easton's hair, and done a FABULOUS job. I have always wanted to be able to. I don't know why, maybe it just felt like a Mommy rite of passage. Either way I made my first attempt this week. My boy was SO good. He sat as still as a busy 3 1/2 yr old boy possibly could. Luckily it turned out alright. Of course it doesn't hurt that my boy is the most handsome thing EVER.

Preschool, camping, and dirt!

BY EASTON

This last camping trip I brought up my very own 4Wheeler! Daddy fixed it up for me. 
When the battery died Daddy had
an even better idea to give me a little pull.  I got to go on a real ride with Daddy!



I spent lots of time with my cousin Cash. We rode bikes and 4wheelers and explored.



I also spent a lot of time "shooting cows". Daddy carved me my very own gun so I could shoot them and protect Aunt Jessi when we went on walks. 


Me and Daddy also took our regular bikes on a long bike ride. I love bike riding with Daddy! We checked out the Ice Caves again and I was brave! I love sleeping in my trailer. I have my very own bed. I want to share with Kinley but Mama says she would roll off. Maybe next year! Until then I shared with Fern. She kind of squished me the first night, Mama had to move her. But the second night she kept me nice and warm.



I can't get enough of camping! Hopefully we can go one more time before it snows! 

I also had Back to School night for Preschool.





AND I had my first day of preschool. I was surprisingly shy but walked right into my class and got to work. There are SO many fun things to do. Did I mention my teacher is my Aunt Jill? She is AWESOME! My cousin Cash is also in my class. I loved it! 






Oh and I am getting really good at primary songs :-)
