Day 1 of the 18-hr road trip
Nate wants to drive, too!
Paw Paw's deer
Checkin' out Paw Paw's canoe and a little rabbit hole underneath
Going on a walk to the neighborhood park
Sportin' our Destin shirts while swinging in the big kid swings
Cool reclining swing at Pioneer Park
Sam is a natural at the balance challenge
Nate went sideways on the "tight rope" but loved this balance bridge--kept going back and forth, studying it.
"Look, Ma...No hands!"
Sam LOVED this slide (or should I say chute?) He would FLY out of it, into GiGi's arms...over and over again.
Nate is eager to try out the wavy slide!
Inspecting a very cool tire ladder
Sam loved driving his trucks (actually some of Curby's old trucks/cars) through the remains of his applesauce cupcake.
At the Johnson Ranch, the boys LOVED climbing into Paw Paw's truck
The boys are sporting their yellow Citronella bracelets (thanks, GiGi--no bites!)
Paw Paw starting the campfire for dinner
Daddy found cool artifacts while hiking around the ranch--Nate is especially curious.
Paw Paw's teepee
Nate enjoyed exploring the new surroundings. It was hard to keep up with him at times...fearless little adventurer.
Daddy showing the boys how to skip rocks
Little did we know how Sam would make it his mission to fill the river with as many rocks as possible!
See that focused determination!
Nice crooked glasses, Nate! Looks like his latest pull-off maneuver warped the frames...again.
Spring floods changed the course of the river slightly and left large amounts of driftwood.
Gale showcasing her new Old West Six Shooter (marshmallow and weenie roaster), a great find at the Casper Farmers' Market!
Note the retractable handle...very clever, eh?
The boys liked the portable table...and enjoyed the hot dogs even more!
