Within five minutes of arriving to the campground the kids were in their swim suits and ready to swim. While J and I set up camp, Warner's dirt radar immediately hit red, and he speedily walked over to a pile of dirt and gave him self a bath. Handful after handful of dirt was rubbed on his arms, and thrown over the top of his head. In true Warner style. This is what he does when he plays in our backyard too. I'm not sure why he feels like he has to throw dirt on himself. On second thought maybe its a survival tactic to camouflage himself and protect himself from any potentially lurking predators.His hide out didn't last more than a moment. Because this little predator found him. Ah ha ha ha (witch cackle) .
My highlight of the camp out was when Olivia said "Daddy lets play princesses!" She grabbed his hand and led him to the tree house. "My castle", she said as she led him to the tree house. "Come on Dad we gotta get married". I stood at the bottom of the tree house and gazed up to the top floor of the tree house and spotted Liv and Jaron dancing. And somewhere in the distance I could hear Liv's faint little hum "So this is love hm hm hm hmmmmm".

Every once in a while I come across a line from a child that just propels me to chuckle to myself every time I think of it. My newest one: "So this is love hm hm hmmmmmmm." I love that girl. I'll have to tell you another favorite from a friend next time we talk on the phone. It's a chuckler.
what a sweet daddy/daughter (or maybe husband/wife, now that they're getting married) moment. love, indeed!
What precious pictures you have taken. Olivia is a funny most intelligent little girl. I see you need that little camp chair I have of yours.
Oh, life is good isn't it. How blessed you are.
