Camping at Dinosaur Valley

We recently took Colton on his first camping trip. The boys haven't been so dirty in their lives, but we had a great time! This park, Dinosaur Valley, had real dinosaur footprints to find in the riverbed. The boys also did a bit of fishing, where Carson caught and reeled in a fish all by himself. Daddy also spoiled us with his wonderful cooking. A great time was enjoyed by all!

Our new pet

We have lizards all over here in Texas. And even though mommy isn't much for animals, she reluctantly agreed to allow Carson to keep the lizard he caught climbing on his play house. Carson named the lizard "Eyeball." It's now a fixture on the KITCHEN COUNTER. We even have live crickets to feed him. Never knew how Aunt Becky did it...now I understand. Carson is showing his friend Eli the book his cousin Mitchell gave him all about lizards & such. Of course he thinks there is a picture of "Eyeball" in the book.
