June and some of July 2011 - Here we go...

June...

Well, what a grand month that was...NOT

We went to our lawyer with my awesome end-of-the-school-year check, completely excited (though ironically) to file for our bankruptcy.  Is that still a social taboo?  Even more ironical (yes I just said that) is coming to the realization that we had too much money in our bank account to file bankruptcy without them taking it all.  Even the whole, "But this is what we have to live off of all summer..." shpeal didn't cut it.  Advice from the awesome lawyer..."Go spend it."  Riight...

After leaving the lawyer less than satisfied and with a pocket full of "already spoken for" money, we decided to go visit my parents and other family in Bend, Oregon.

That is where we spent June.  Exciting?  Sure..

JUNE SIDE NOTES:
    Blazer started crawling and (YIKES) I have zero photos of it.  Another milestone uncovered.  Awesome mom of the year award...right here.

July...

Oh July, how I look back on thee and realize you went by way too fast.  July is my birth month, which gets less and less exciting the older I get.  What is exciting, however, is that every year we get to go camping with a wonderful group of people at a wonderful and FREE campsite we stumbled on years ago.  This year, we decided to go for 5 days.  Without showers.  Without toilets or running water.  Without a crib.

Verdict?  AWESOMENESS...well except for how we smelt and felt at the end of the 5 days.   Blazer was a champ and slept every night, all through the night, except one.  The invention of Pack N Plays made that trip possible.  Thank you, Graco.  I'd also like to thank Coleman, who makes unbelievable durable air beds.  RVs, eat your heart out.

Some remembrance...

 Kelty, you rock!
 Walkers while camping when your son can't walk?  Uh-MAZE-ing.
 Giggles with dad while sitting around the fire = priceless bonding.
 A place to call "home" while in the outdoors!
 Playing "Pass the Baby"
"Mom, camping is incredible."

More of July to come...
