May - Dads Take Kiddo's Hiking

The snow is finally (mostly!) gone and spring is taking over!
(haha, ok this is the part where you laugh at the irony in my blog post timing - since winter is currently trying to take over again...oh well ;)!)

I was having a sleep-over with my girl friends (-to watch only the biggest, most exciting event of the year: The 2011 Eurovision Song Contest!!! Every European country preforms an original song, and then each country votes on which they like best; it gets pretty outrageous at times, haha, but really fun to see what is "cool" from so many different cultures. See here if you wanna know more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurovision_Song_Contest)

ANYWAY, while I was away, Andy and another dad took our kids hiking (culminating in roasting hot dogs and checking out massive ant hills :). Following are a few pics of the hike and our "backyard:"
Hot dogs!
-training our children up in the true ways of hiking (=fire+meat!)
(This is about 15 minutes from our home, and about 5 minutes from Andy's work; we really like it here ;)!)

An Ant Hill!!

you got to watch Eurovision?!! Joel and I are jealous, we watched it when we were in Europe and it was probably one of the funniest things we have ever seen.

Awesome! I'm still sad that we didn't make it up there - we were trying. I'm about 7 mos. behind on my blog now, so don't feel bad. We miss you guys - makes me smile to read about your Euro adventures!
