First camping trip of 2015!

Somewhere around February Preston started asking when we could go camping.
And it hasn't stopped since then.
 
 
We FINALLY got it out for some weekend fun last weekend.
 
 
Preston couldn't have been happier.


 
They've been waiting all year for SMORES!

 
I think someone has outgrown his camping chair.

 
Saturday turned out to be pretty nice and we spent some time at the playground.

 
Cy came along too.




 
It was pretty windy but we did a little fishing.



 
They spent some time drowning some worms.

 
Everyone enjoys a little fishing.

 
Preston did catch a nice Bass later in the day but that was the ONLY fish caught all weekend.
We can't wait for nice weather and more camping!

First pig show of the season!

We've got our first pig show under our belt!
We loaded everyone up and headed out about 5:00 one morning!
 
 
                    


They were both excited to wear their show gear again!
 
 

 
A year has made a big difference!
They are both A LOT more helpful getting them weighed in, washed and to the ring!



 
Preston has improved quite a bit.

 
Showmanship is always entertaining.
 

 
They love hanging out at the trailer just messing around...and snacking, lots of snacking.


 
Another favorite spot is the pig ramp into the trailer.
It wouldn't be my first choice of where to sit but they seemed to enjoy it!

 
Preston and Melvin and Peighton and Tootsie Roll.

 
With a little more time Peighton is going to be an awesome showman.
She has improved leaps and bounds from last year and truly enjoys doing it!

 
This picture is one of my favorites.
He is trying very hard to show like the big boys.
He's trying to crouch down just like some of the older kids in the background.



 
Not too long into the drive home it got very quiet in the backseat.
Can't wait for the next one!

Afternoon laps with the pigs

Our afternoon fun now includes making laps around the house with all the pigs!
 
 
 
Preston is good for about 2 laps and then he says his "legs are tired of walking."


 
They are NOT supposed to go in the play area...because they poop everywhere!
Preston is getting better at keeping them out.


 
He has become quite fond of "Cookie."
