South Dakato Day 1 part 1

We left Friday the 13th at 4:45 am. Alex, Jeremiah and I stayed a wake while the others slept. We got to Flintstones Bedrock City South Dakota around 12:00. We sent up the tent, beds, ate and played at the city for about a hour. I couldn't put all the pictures up but we took over 13,000 pictures over the course of the trip. The Bedrock city was so much fun. I had a blast.That night was cold but the kids slept just fine. I think it helped that we went to Bear Country U.S.A. and Reptile Gardens that day too. So we got back to the tent a 8:45. The kids had a hard time falling but man when they finally gave in they were out.
The kids went back to sleep until 8:00 am. They traveled great. Maya loved Adyen's bat and watching movies.

Swimming

That is Alex's head and Lizzie's head.

Yesterday, Stacey, Cyndi, Emily and I went to Jackie's for the swimming pool. I hate it when I get home and see that I didn't take a lot of pictures. Maya like the pool for about an hour. The boys loved it. Elijah really loved it.

Play at the park

On Monday I had Jackie's kids and all 6 of the kids I had that day needed to get out and run. So we went to Sariah's and went to the park in their neighborhood. Garrett, Sariah, Ayden, Payton, Carissa, Kylie,Cason, Alex ,Elijah and Maya played and ate. It was a great day to play.

Camping in the back yard.

We needed to put up the new tent before going on our trip. Jeremiah said that Sunday can be our practice run. Alex, Maya and Jeremiah lasted the whole night. Elijah and I on the other hand didn't not last that long. I was done camping when Jeremiah got in the tent at 11:15pm and Jeremiah sent Elijah in at 4:30 am. So I hope I do better up in South Dakota then I did here.

Chatfield Arboretum

Today, we went to the great out doors for a nice walk. The kids love being in the wild. We went to the Chatfield Arboretum. There was an old one room school, lots of paths to take and in the fall there is a pumpkin patch and a corn maze. It was so nice the boys did not fight one time will we were there. You have to love summer break.
