Our Family Camping Adventure!

This last weekend we enjoyed a family camping adventure! We left on Thursday to our campground in Cascade Locks Oregon! We had a such a great trip to some beautiful areas! This picture is of Mount Hood as we were driving to Cascade Locks!
On Friday we ventured into Portland and took the kids to the Oregon Zoo! We had a great time!


Me and my silly girls!
The girls looking at the ducks!



Ryan and the kids!

The girls taking a break, they loved these tractor seats!

A few pictures of my very silly boys!


The giraffe

Hmmm what could that be, oh yeah that is my daughters shoe on the bottem of the giraffe cage! She got her foot caught in the fence and off came the shoe! She screamed so hard you would have thought the giraffe bit her but no she lost a shoe! Luckily they were able to retrieve it when they cleaned the pen! So we still have both shoes!

The boys tired after a fun day at the zoo!
Ryan and Lydia, silly girl!

Fun at the camp site!
Leauna was being a goof and thought Ryans pop can would look better on picture then her face!


My baseball boy! Give him a bat and ball and he is happy as can be!


Beutiful scenery on the Columbia River!

On Saturday we ventured out and took the kids to Multnomah Falls, just of the Columbia river!





Love this picture!




We also made a stop at a fish hatchery on Saturday!

Drum Roll Please!

Introducing the newest member of the Dupuy family! Tada! A New Car (New too us!) I am so excited, that we were able to find this car, we have been looking for quite a while for the perfect car! This is our 2003 Yukon XL Denali! I love it! It has so much space for our family, we have felt for quite some time that we had grown our of our mini van! It just didn't have the space that we needed for the 4 kids and all that goes with them! Double strollers take up a lot of space! So we are realy excited about this!






I love the inside, it is all leather and has a built in dvd player which is great for the kids!



This week we decided to go for a little adventure. In the area where we live their is 115 acres of land that we share as home owners, on that is a little lake! So beautiful, so we decided we would go for a drive and see the lake because we hadn't been able too! There was a nice couple that we met there that were fishing and they let the girls reel in their fish for them! They had so much fun holding the fishing poles!




Here is Leauna and her first fish that she caught!



And This is Lydia and her first fish! She caught two at the same time!









Ryan and his lucky fish! Most of the fish are pretty small so we just threw them back but the girls had a blast and we look forward to many more family fishing adventures!
Here are a few pictures from the lake, because it is absolutly beautiful!




Ryland fell asleep on the couch after church, while waiting for lunch! It was so cute and then Lydia put her baby down for a nap right next to him!


Also this week we made bannana bread. We found out officialy a couple weeks ago that Ryland is allergic to eggs, so our mission was to make the bread with out any eggs, I was able to find a few substitutes online to fill in! The girls had a blast helping! The bread is a little different with out eggs but still tasty!
And last but not least this is our new pet! He comes out often and sunbathes on our patio! The girls love watching him!
