Nelson Family Camp out!

We had a great weekend of camping in the Unitas. We stayed in the Soap stone campground which was very nice, although the bathrooms were very hard to breath in and take care of your business. Other then that the weather and lake were just perfect. It was great to get away from the heat and just relax for the weekend with family! The Nelson crew... so sad we missed Mel, Brad, Chloe, and Troy we love you guys!
Lindsey and Rachel playing in the cold lake water.
Cute Emily... I think this is her second appearance on the blog, you go girl!
Ellsie in her port a crib. She likes to eat to many things right now, so no crawling around. Thank goodness for the baby cage.
Cute Jaxon playing in the lake and loving it.


Blame the dog

My twin little boys! Gatlin had the shirt first and then my friend Lessa bought Jaxon one for his upcoming (fourth) birthday. So when Gatlin wore his, Jaxon of course needed to have his on. I think they both look so cute. It's so funny going places with the too of them, people always ask if they are twins. I explained what the shirt meant to Jaxon and now Jaxon's excuse for everything is the dog..... poor lilly!
As I was making this post, Jaxon saw the pictures and asked why Gatlin is taller then him.... Hmmm well my answer was "sorry buddy your mom and dad are short and you most likely will be a short guy". He thought about my answer for a minute and his reply was "I'll just were high shoes".

Zoo Zoo Zipty Zoo!

I've been trying to get to the zoo all summer long and it just never seemed to happen... But as you can see we finally made the trip to the zoo! Jaxon and Gatlin were so excited to see all of the animals and be with their cousins. Jaxon's favorite animal was the Giraffe's when we went to see them he said " WOW mom they are GI-normous". It was a great day, although I missed the hippo's those are my favorite, but I made up for it with a big bag of cotton candy!
