Dennie Kids: June 5, 2009

Highlights from today: (click here for the pictures)

• Last night, Graham was eating and I told him he could have a cookie when he finished and he started clapping!
  
• Anderson walking through the kitchen with his baseball bat and saying "I've got my cane." Later Reagan told him he couldn't come in the tent with his cane and he said "I've got to, my knee is hurting"
  
• Watching the train at the grocery store-a boy growled at Reagan and Anderson and they just backed into the corner and stood there frightened-Mom had to leave the check out line, Graham and the groceries to rescue them
• Watching Mom do lots of work in the garage while playing with the inflatable razorback. We didn't know what she was doing but she was working hard
• Playing outside some before lunch
  
• Dad coming home and telling us that we were getting to go camping tonight-Reagan is thrilled, Anderson said "no, Grannymom's house" and Graham clapped
• A puzzle, laundry, making muffins (and Anderson spraying himself with cooking spray) and naps this afternoon-while waiting for Dad so we could go
• The adventure will continue tonight and this post will continue when we return....
• Reagan and Anderson helping Mom and Dad set up the tent at Maumelle Lake while Graham sat in the buggy relaxing
• Hamburgers and hot dogs for supper before playing on the swings with Grannymom and Grandpa-they came to eat supper with us
• An hour long bike ride for Reagan and Anderson-their little bikes had never gone that far at all!
• Skipping the smores since we were so full from supper and heading to bed
• Reagan asked if the tent was our home and while falling asleep Anderson kept saying "Mom, home, Dad home" (as in let's go home)
• Everyone sleeping well-Graham stirred a few times but went back to sleep fairly easily and Anderson sleeping almost an hour later than everyone else-during this hour Graham was crawling all around the tent
