Camp Jellystone Weekend

Nestled in east Texas is Camp Jellystone Whispering Pines. Since we’ve visited them last (a couple years ago), they’ve undergone some pretty massive renovations and added a bunch of RV spots and cabins.

We had a great time before and a really grand time this visit. Lots of water fights in the water park, I swam laps in that giant pool all by myself, we had s’mores over the fire pit, baked pizza on the grill outside, sang karaoke in the arts & craft center, played laser tag, played gellyball, did a round of miniature golf, did donuts in a golf cart, had an afternoon snack of “make your own caramel apple”, jumped for hours on the giant jump pad, found a shady spot made by a pole in the pool, spotted raccoons foraging around the campground at night and listened to the forest night sounds while stargazing around the fire pit.

We can’t wait to go back …

Springtime Roadtrip.

Oklahoma springtime fields.

Arkansas. Cousins. Fields of buttercups. Tire swing. The Child’s first time camping. Cows. Roosters. Horses. Springtime.

Such a beautiful time of the year. Gorgeous mosses, big nope space (leaves of three, leave it be). Picnic at the park. Such warm memories made. Driving home today… Gasquatch stop and The Husband trying to get a wave. He always tries to get a wave.

Monster trucks!!

It was a great day yesterday to be outside in the sunshine! It was even better that we were outside in this amazing weather for an incredible 2Xtreme Monster Truck show!

Made it home

Flying in, i swear I could feel the cold through the walls of the plane. I could see that the roadways were white in the glow of the street lights. This morning, our lawn glinted like a million diamonds had been dumped in our front yard. Icy. Beautiful. Cold.

Tampa

We traveled last night to Tampa. Excited to be here again!

Today we spent some time with my brother and then headed over to a movie set and the Child was an extra in a movie. Basically, he got to pretend to trick-or-treat in January.

We’re headed to Orlando now.

(I’m resurrecting my blog because Facebook decided to arbitrarily disable my account with them, with no warning. Probably should never have relied on a company who, in my opinion, has gotten way too big for their britches.)

He always touches the ❤️ before boarding the plane!
All the actors and actresses!
Truck-or-treating on the set in January!

Sea World Orlando. Plants, rollercoasters, plants and flying porpoises. And plants. Heh.
