Technical Difficulties

First Jimmy added captions to the pictures- it wouldn't post right
Then I added comentary on the pictures- it wouldn't post at all
So here's the BRIEF lowdown...
I'm not sure who had more fun. If James' perma-grin in the pic's doesn't say enough, he continues to thank Daddy multiple times a day for the awesome campout, and requests another next weekend.
They enjoyed hanging out with other guys from church and especially had fun with uncle Bridger and cousin Jayden. The highlight of the trip? While hiking Saturday morning the following took place:
"Hey look Dad, a dog"
"Oh my heavens, it's a black bear cub!"
Yup- James saw his first bear in the wild at age 4; 30 years before his dad.

Meanwhile, Elizabeth, Anna and I enjoyed our own "girl party" where we painted nails, wore skirts and purses, and went out to eat with aunt Laura and Hazel. Most of the fellow patrons seemed to enjoy our darling and well behaved 3 little ones, however Mr. waterboy was less-than-impressed. Hey- it wasn't OUR fault they put 2 adults and 3 high chairs at the FIRST table in the restaurant.
We had an enjoyable evening nonetheless and since Sissy fell asleep on our way home, we continued our "Girl Party" Saturday morning where we played with dress up dolls and ate pancakes. Here's to next year's Father's and Sons!

Any pictures of baby bear? If there is a baby bear than there must be a mama bear to, right? James looks thrilled. Way to go Jimmy!
