Camping Trip


Every year for Memorial Day weekend we load up and head down to the Arizona Strip where my mother grew up. Mt. Trumbull is mostly owned by the Bundy family, and that is where we hold our reunions. We always have so much fun. A couple of my sisters couldn't make it out this year. We missed them, but had fun nonetheless. Above is Wyatt on a swing. We'd go over and push him, and he would have the time of his life. When it stopped swinging, he would just wait for someone to come and push him again. It was cute.

Relaxing in the cabin.


Houston and Peyton (Daisie's boys) playing the quiet game around the fire.


All the guys going for a ride, even Wyatt. Ross and Neil got a little lost. The trip ended up lasting about seven hours. Ross had never been so saddle soar. I'm just glad Wyatt held up. He loves riding "dad's bike".


Misty having a little freedom. There were very few places I'd let her down, even though she ended up pretty dirty at the end of the day. I'm paying for it now, though. She wants me to hold her all the time.


Haha! Talk about DIRTY!! I think he found a cup or a small bucket and just dumped it on his head, like he does with water in the tub.


This picture didn't turn out so well, but this is my love packing up to go home. He does so much to make this an enjoyable trip for us every year. I'm so glad that he loves going out to the ranch as much as I do. I love you honey!!

Good Job!

This is just on of those posts for my memory's sake.
Lately, Wyatt has been wanting to do more things on his own. Open and close doors, put on his hat, brush his own teeth, which I of course, have to really help with. He's really become more independent lately. He made me laugh the other day, when we decided to drive to Grandma's house. Ross had the truck which had his car seat in it, so I had him sit up front so I could keep him under control. Plus, it's not that far, so I put him in the front and closed the door. By the time I had walked around to the driver's side, he'd found the keys in the console and had them held out to give to me. This was our conversation.

Wyatt: Here, mom.
Me: Thank you, Wyatt.
Wyatt: Y'Welcome! (pointing to the ignition) Right there, mom.
Me: Ok (putting the key in and turning it on)
Wyatt: Good Job!

It made me laugh, and it was one of those moments that made me even happier to be a mother.
