A Little Birthday Camping Trip

Saturday was Taven's birthday (he's 2!) and next Monday is Eaden's birthday (she'll be 5!). We decided to celebrate by taking a camping trip to Brazos Bend State Park this weekend. Here are a few (yes this really is only a few) of the pictures. I'm quite sad that I didn't get more of Taven and that the ones I did get kind of suck. My husband brought him around 3 on Saturday and they left that night. Next time, I promise to Taven that he can camp overnight with us. Sorry bud.

  1. Oh Wow! Alligators! :-) I had to show my children these photos! They were so impressed! We love to go camping, but we get excited seeing a Duck in a pond! ;-) They've only had the chance to see "rescued Alligators" in captivity. How amazing to see them like this. Sounds like a lovely weekend!
    love

  2. Many Happy Birthday wishes to your littles! They are beautiful and I love the cute hairstyles. Alligators-galore whoa. Wait you camped too? Here I am freaking about camping on a beach this summer and you are camping. You inspire me. I should shut up my fretting. ;)

    1. i had never used an air mattress while camping until this weekend. pregnancy was the excuse and, i must say, it was very comfortable.

  4. I didn't realize that Taven was so close in age to Gabe! Gabe turned two last Wednesday. And now we'll be having babies fairly close together again. Small world. This looks like a wonderful way to celebrate and spend time together. What a fun trip. Soon you'll be taking four kids camping!

  5. Looks like a fun camping trip. I might have been a bit freaked out by the alligators. Were they near your campsite? (I'm obviously not used to southern wildlife :)

  6. Happy Birthday to your kiddos!! Wow, that looks like such an awesome time!! Loved the pictures - especially the alligators. Emma keeps thinking we have them here and telling our friends that there's one in our neighborhood?! (for some reason when she hears a woodpecker, she thinks that's what it is...) I'll have to show her your pictures...
