First Overnight Camping Trip!

 Earlier this summer, we took the kids camping at Stone Mountain Park campground. The first couple of pictures are of their new sleeping bags. They wanted to try them out in the middle of the kitchen floor first. We decided to stay close to home on this first over-nighter in case we needed to pack up the car and head home! Stone Mt. is about 20min. from home. The kids did great and really enjoyed the experience. We did alright also having never done this sort of thing with small children before. We did make a few mental notes like, don't forget paper towels or the syrup for the pancakes:) We also decided to bring the earplugs again if we choose to camp in the middle of a big city! Oh yes, and the last thing, don't over boil the coffee and burn the top of your son's precious little head. That is sure to ruin the beginning of your day. Thankfully the campground saved breakfast with donuts and coffee.

 

About this picture..I think Logan was really excited to be here. She posed unprompted and said, "Take my picture!" This was even before smores!

So, here's my current dilemma and update...I can't find my camera bag. It has our charger and downloading cord in it. It's driving me crazy. All that to say, hope you aren't staring too long at these pics. I have some great ones from our summer days at home and the things the kids are into right now. Logan loves playing with her babies and jumping off everything. Fleetwood is walking around and loves to push things. I gave him his first haircut. Um, let's just say...I hope it grows out and my mom can fix it when my parents arrive this weekend. Fleetwood is doing well at work. He was supposed to be deployed for hurricane relief this weekend, but isn't going to have to go anymore. I just got my wisdom teeth taken out a week and a half ago. I've just been given the "all looks well, go on with life" from the doc, SO as soon as I find my camera case I'll get some new pics uploaded!
