A little here and a little there, there's excitement everywhere!: July 2014

Yes. We do go camping. Yes. We may live in a very remote part of the country that might seem as if everyday life is camping, but to us, this is the kind of camping we love =)

And our camping includes swimming, boating, fishing, biking,.....

....... and the most important part is the food.
Elijah said that's what we go for really.

Dad has decided to become a photographer so consequently he's not in many of the pictures.

While we were all standing around by this sign before we went out onto that road to ride, a little red zippy car went flying by with a guy hanging out the window yelling and waving at us. Automatically I grinned and waved as they sailed away.

Dad's like, "Good thing we keep you around, Kay. We wouldn't get nearly as much attention otherwise!"

I exclaimed, "Dad! He wasn't waving at me! I just was the only one who waved back!"

Dad, "That's what you think.... =)"

Mother Dear and Daddy =)

(They must have been truly happy that day because those are truly real smiles!)

We did a fabulous 15-mile loop around Lake Carmi

There were multiple families of ducks in different stages of growth all around where we were.

So ridiculously adorable too.

I'd love to know that worried little mother's method of training of her children, because those little things come running at the slightest sound she makes.

This raccoon really wanted to eat the ducklings, but we scared it up this tree.

It was a bold thing because we woke up to Ben yelling in the middle of the night because it had gone right up in the lean-to while he was sleeping and was on his feet!
