cheating just a little...

Three of us, Morgan only used one arm and we still lost. ha! It was really close though :) 

Mickel Camp continued....

 Ok, this is the last bunch of mickel camp pics. We took Tyce and Jacey out in Grandpa's fishing boat. We didnt have any life jackets that fit them so we made do with what we had. Not sure it would have stayed on had they actually gone overboard but peace of mind anyway.

 Can you find Tyce is this pic? Ha! it was the funniest thing. It started to thunder when we got out there and Tyce is pretty scared of thunder so he gave up fishing, laid down on the boat floor and asked me to cover him up. Bless his little cotton socks.

 Jacey missed her nap and decided to join him on the floor.....and they covered their faces with their jackets when the thunder got loud :)

The rain finally caught up to us and chased us off the lake - we were soaked! But you never make good memories by staying clean or dry :) It was definitely memorable and a lot of fun.

Jacey was so dirty we tried to tub her the best we could - she just fit :)

Overall Mickel Camp was an absolute ball. We had a wonderful time doing all the things we love best. So grateful Rustin was able to get the time off so we could go. Thank you!

Mickel Camp continued...

 Ok, so along with lots of fishing there were lots of squeeze-its....

 lots of time with favorite aunt Natty....

 lots of playing in mountain dirt.....(this is cousin Leighton :))

 lots of cousins....

the annual family auction.....always a favorite :)

 Me and Rustin won the bid on the coveted bag of jerky which I was quite proud of :) Last year it went for $500!

 lots and lots of 4-wheeling :)

 isnt this the cutest picture? I love their little helmet heads :)

love the skirt :)

 Jacey looks like a bobble head with the helmet - cracks me up :)

 It rained almost every day and made the stickiest mud so of course we had to go find all the puddles. I laughed my face off - we were pretty covered. Tyce loved it! He giggled the whole time.

Well thats it for now. I'll post the last few Mickel Camp pics later :)

Mickel Camp

 We just got back from Mickel Camp, ie Rustin's family reunion. We had such a great time doing everything we love with those that we love. The most perfect five days. We went fishing more in the last few days then we have in the last few years. We would fish morning and evening almost everyday - it was perfect.

 Tyce absolutely fell in love with fishing which was the cutest thing. I so hope fishing is something that Tyce and Rustin will have just like Rustin and his Dad and Rustin's Dad and his Dad, etc :) Keeping up the tradition :)

 Jacey was not so in love with the fishing as she was the mud and rocks but she never fell in the water so I count it as a success :) My favorite was the little purple skirt, can you see it? She got it at the kids store that they do and she wore it for three days til it became absolute shreds....we had to throw it away.

 Jacey stole my hat and I took a few pics. She looked so dang cute in it.

I wish you could see Tyce reel in a fish. He just giggles the whole time - I love it :)

This is the sweet face she gives me all the time.......she is such a sassy pants.....but we wouldnt have her any other way :)
