CAMPING!!

Our family went on a camping trip last weekend.  

We had a great time!

H.O. and I used to camp in a camper, but I had not slept in a tent since I was a girl scout, with the help of an air mattress it was great!

The campground had a fishing pond and a shallow river flowing through it.  The kids had a great time playing in the river, the boys also enjoyed fishing.

We also ventured up to the Blue Ridge Parkway, what a beautiful view.  It was a very clear day and we could see for a long way into the distance.  If we look cold, it's because we were, it was about 10 degrees colder on top of the mountain.

Our campground had a waterfall, how pretty!

The best part was being able to enjoy God's creation with no distractions!  The kids had a great time playing together, in the water, at the playground, skipping rocks, fishing, with no distractions like the TV or internet!  We also had a great time around the campfire.  What a relaxing way to start the day, sitting around the campfire with a warm cup of coffee, ahh.

We are looking forward to camping again!
