Camping Fun!

We are back from a wonderful 48 hours of Mother's Day Weekend Camping at one of our favorite sites, Jellystone! 

 Yuppers, with good ol' Yogi and Boo Boo!


Morning Flag Raising with Yogi!  Important way to start the camping way!



Firetruck Ride around the camping grounds, complete with sirens and lights! Momma got a new hat....


Oh Happy Daze!


Kids came back from crafting and found a party table ready for them....S'Mores anyone?




The gang!




On our nature hike, we found a lot of woodpeckers and their holes



Kids loved exploring



Camping lapbooks!


Queen of the rock...




I made up individual s'more containers filled up for the kids.


Playground at the camp ground


The sites....very nice wooded lots


BFF's!


Time to say good-bye to our friends....two little ones had their own idea...run run away....

I took over 400 pictures in 48 hours, these are just some highlights. We had a great time with friends and a great Mother's Day (so far...lol)

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
