possum kingdom

our latest camping trip took us to possum kingdom state park...

the views from our camp site were amazing...

and this time we got to bring the babies!!!!

they didn't exactly understand the leash law thing and really didn't think that it should apply to them -

they also didn't understand why on earth their daddy - who brought them all this way - would not want them in his bed!!!!

but i'm cute....

i promise not to take up too much room...

fine - i'm not talking to either of you!!!

at this point b.dog started to do his whole turn around before laying down thing - but he doesn't know that he is HUMONGOUS and he fell off the bench on to the floor under the table!!! i laughed so hard it made the camper shake!!!!:-)

here are some more fun things we did....

king arthur...

thor...

monkeys....

circus act....

and wild animals!!!!

isn't he handsome....

(i'll never tell which one i'm talking about - i don't want to hurt any ones feelings:-)

and we hiked...

j.man got tired ...

but g.money couldn't wait to see what was around the next bend...

here i am taking a picture of the boys going....

up the hill...
and down the hill...

and away we go....
