Desert Trip

We had a blast on our desert trip. Asher loved being so free and running in the sand. He really enjoyed all the big kids and adults. Asher rode the 50 for the first time too! We weren't able to get any pics of the 50 ride since Daddy and Momma were running along side him, but our fellow campers thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment! The weather was beautiful and we had lots of fun. We enjoyed the fellowship and I was able to get in a ride, first time in over 2 years...I have been pregnant 2 desert seasons in a row.

We think we have finally figured out what 'a kers' means in Asher english...the girls. Ever since Asher started talking, his words would be proceeded with ahh or ahhh la and then the word. So, since we have been home, whenever he sees a young girl, especially with blonde hair, he says a kers. So, we think he is saying 'the girls' which makes sense to me since I would ask him if he wanted to go see 'the girls', Kendra, Jenna, Taylor and Selah were his besties out there.
We opted to keep the boys in jammies since it was so cold the morning we left.

Moving right up to the 80 forget the little 50

He climbed up all on his own Here we go...
We were amazed at how well Asher did in a 'big bed'. We put up the railing and he never got out and slept great.

One day was a little windy so we played in the trailer.
So all weekend anytime David or I got near Asher while he was playing or with someone, he would protest and fit. By the end of the weekend, David and I were feeling pretty unloved, but MAN OH MAN, did this make up for it. As much as it killed my back, I soaked in every last minute of this sweet time. From the border check outside of West Moreland to 79 Asher was on my lap and fell asleep on me. This boy never sleeps on us any more and hasn't since before he was 1 years old. I will cherish this moment forever. It made the car sick Isaac clean up even easier. Yes, we learned on this trip that Isaac is our car sickness child. I was prepared for the sickness on the way home...I put him in his highchair so most of the mess was contained on the tray and the rest was in the seat.

My sweet, sweet boy!
What a great trip we had and are excited and praying we can make it back out for the post Christmas trip.
