Dakota - Week 14 - Memorial Day Weekend

It was another fun-filled slightly wet Memorial Day weekends spent camping with the "extended family" at Granite Hill Camp Ground.  This year marked my first time roasting marshmallows on an open fire, Dakota's first camp fire, Sierra's first time sleeping in a big girl bed and my first time sleeping in a tent.  The pictures below tell the tale...



















Dakota - Week 13 - Three Months Old







Dakota - Week 13 - Getting Ready for Camp

There is a lot of excitement building around the house.  The news is in and Momma has decided the she and the girls are going to come to Memorial Day weekend with Daddy and me.  So its family camping time.  And of course that means we need to get ready for the volleyball tournament... What you say, the minimum age requirement is 12... check out these moves and see if the NJ Foy family should get a waiver...
 Connor spikes on Sierra...
 Sierra returns the favor...
 Tazz bump-sets Connor...
Dakota also got into the spirit by trying out grass for the first time in out backyard.  I think she liked it!
And then at the end of the week - Uncle Sean and Devon came by for a visit on their way to camp...  We had LOTS of fun... so much that we wore everyone out...


 But before long it was time to get cleaned up and pack for camp...   See you there!
Note:  Two cool pictures Momma really wanted to share...

High flying...
 Sierra's teenager look...

Dakota - Week 12 - Family Fun

This week was full of family fun - from the Pennington Day Festival which we enjoyed with Gigi and PopPop to baking brownies with Momma.   It was yummy fun all around...

Connor's first ice cream cone.
Petting a bunny at the petting zoo.
Sierra of course found the cutest little piglet to pet.
Grain pellets were the food of choice for the sheep.

Side note: Daddy and Dakota held their first father daughter chat.
Did I mention we made brownies?  As the chef we had to taste them...
and taste them some more!  Daddy gave them an A+.
Oh and did you  know Sierra is strong enough to hold Kota?  Well almost...
Momma is still working on getting us all in a row and smiling for the camera...
But she is quick the the shutter and managed to capture this sweet moment.
Dakota is a woman of many faces... Momma just loved the checks and and chin in this one...  Who do you think was more focused on the TV, Dakota or me...
Sierra put her new cutting skills to the test with Daddy.  Great job sis!
And I took to the air with some extra special style...
Dakota tried for some air too in her Jumper-a-roo... She is still working on the jumping part!
