Camping Trip

Here's our kitchen area. Ruth & Levi's tent is behind there. We got a site w/ electricity so Hayla could do treatments. Then we thought why not get a fridge for Hayla's meds that need to stay cold; and it was great for other things.

Here's the campfire area and our tent.


Every one keeping busy.Except the teenager!


Shane and (our cousin) Chelsie.



Hayla was prepared to ride at a moments notice.



Talon & Daddy watching a movie. (Thank you Terri it gets a ton of use)

We did a good job of getting treatments done.



Chelsie & Chehayla

Poor dog! She draged her all through the river.



From one bank to the another. Shane & Aden are on the other side.

They made thier way back down. Its cool how familiar we are with this place.


Aden



Maggie

They wanted to be in /w us. But not enough to just jump in.


I tryed to coax them in. They knew we were doing something.


Forging the river.....


... for the perfect shot!



Dish crew (for a night!)

AAUUHHH!
Chehayla draging Pappy to the "berry tree".


This is Foster lake, up the road from the campsite. We never knew it was there. Once Shane found it we spent 2 days there.


Me & Chuffy


She was sucking the water out of the boat w/ a squirter.


Pappy fishing on the banks.


Aden fishing on the banks.


Papa had taken Talon rowing around the lake (not the whole thing..its huge!), so they went around to see Aden & Pappy, & left them the boat.



Everybody roasting marshmellows. Actually it was more of a flame contest.


I love the way Talon's looking at her Papa.


MMMmmm

Shane & I went to town & brought back a cany bar for the kids. Yeah!

Early morning antibiotics.


Aden has a scratch across his face cause he gets his bike riding skills from me! He rode off the trail into sticker bushes, his sisters just stood at the top continuing w/ thier conversation!

Camp food


Ruth & Levi in Foster lake.

It was Ruth's B-day and Aden picked her all those blackberrys!

Crashed out from a big day at the lake. She slept like this every day we went there! They all swam like crazy. She went out to where it was up to my chest & swam back over & over. And the kids just go where ever (w/in the swimming area w/ us around). They pulled each other in those boats for hours.


Shane finished almost his whole word search book that he never has time to do!



Talon & Chuffy

I sent Hayla down the rapids by her self! That was nerve racking the first time, but she was fine. So we did it again.


Talon & Aden riding the rapids.

It's always good when you can see where the rocks are at.


Aden trying to float on his butt.!

Shane keeping gaurd over the kids.

  1. WOW!!!!!! Everything sooooo pretty & everyone having a great time. The kids look like they had a ball. Reminds me of when we were little and Nanny & Papa would take us camping. What a wonderful way to spend the last of the summer.

    Love you all...Mammy
