Owen on Vacation

Owen.  This kid is cute.  I mean seriously cute.  And he loves to just hang around with Mom and let her take pictures of him, so I have a TON of pictures of him.

Owen loved getting dirty.  He would have a bath several times a day, and would instantly be dirty again.

His favorite thing was to fall down into the dirt and watch the soft dust puff up around him.  Then he'd look up and innocently say, "I tripped".

He loved trying to be big and fish like Josh.

He tried really hard to go strong all day, but every day he ended up passed out on the couch for a nap, despite his best efforts.

He wasn't a big fan of the boat.

He preferred to stay on the shore and be silly.

 

Did I mention that he was constantly covered in dirt?

Owen is at that magical age, where when you say, "Smile!", this is what you get...

And when you say, "Give me a big smile", this is what you get.

Owen loved playing in the back of Scott's truck while everyone else fished.

At the firepit, he preferred straight up chocolate bars instead of s'mores.

Don't let this picture fool you.  This one bite of apple was the only healthy thing he ate the whole week.

 

Owen also enjoyed the freedom to roam.  I caught him one day enjoying an otter pop up on the hill across the creek.
