Nebraska City


The girls each had some money to spend on the trip this is what Camryn picked...
and this is what Elody picked...

 Our first stop in Nebraska City was at the Mayhew Cabin/John Brown's Cave. The girls are still a bit young to understand slavery but they were able to understand a very basic explanation and enjoyed the other activities that they had for the day.

 Our second stop in Nebraska City was at Arbor Day Farm Tree Adventure. The girls had a BLAST here! Lot of birds for Camryn and lots of other things to do/look at for both girls to enjoy. 
This picture makes me laugh! Elody could have been much meaner than she was :)

Listening to nature

 Both girls enjoyed the giant spider web

 We even took the 2nd trail that was not paved and went much further out. The girls love to be outside and it was nice and shady with all the trees but VERY humid.
 This trail had 50 birds and 1 squirrel hiding in the trees. The girls loved spotting all the birds.
daddy found the squirrel

the girls found lots of birds but I'm sure we didn't find all 50... we didn't count

Hawk eyed Camryn found a snail, she was very sad we wouldn't let her keep it :(


Camryn ran ahead to sit on baby bear's chair, she yelled to us "it didn't even break!"

the 3 bears must be BIG!

my little bears

Elody was walking at a snails pace by the time we made it back to the parking lot because she was "out of power."

Zoo 2012


We have been to the zoo so many times now that I skipped the camera and we just took a few pics on our phones. I tried to pick a few that I loved of the girls and skip all of the animal pictures that look the same as always. 

This bird tried to peck at Camryn through the glass!


Elody has turned into quite the goof!






I'm not quite sure when she got this big and developed this attitude!


Camryn is FIVE!

Playing "Shaggy, Shaggy, Scooby"

Ring Toss

They solved the clues and got the the cookie back!

She's FIVE!

playing in the water

getting a 3 year old, two 4 year olds, and a 5 year old to pose and look at the camera is IMPOSSIBLE!

Camryn with her new bike

this one is slightly better.... I think ;)

Camryn even made the news!

blowing out the candles on the little bit of cookie that was left, it was too windy to light the candles at the park
