Camp out

Brandon and I took the boys to the Beaver's Bend area this past weekend camping. [I use the term 'camping' very loosely.] We had a wonderful weekend of family time staying in a cabin, riding 4 wheelers, sitting by a campfire and going on nature hikes. Brandon's parents met up with us on Saturday night and cooked yummy steaks for dinner. Zachary said it was the best "bacation" he ever went on.

Here are some pictures from our get away. I must preface them by telling you about a few. There is an adorable shot of my boys on the edge of a cliff. I told Brandon to put Trent up there with Zachary and then STAY BY HIM. He apparently only heard the first part of that because moments later my child was tumbling head over heels down a small mountain!!! The next few pictures in the slide show are of Zachary and Daddy's reaction. You can tell how terribly worried they were about Trent's well being. There is also a shot where you can see how filthy Trent got from his little fall. Thankfully, he had so many clothes on that he was padded from the accident and wasn't hurt at all.

This looks like SOO much fun!!! What a great time the boys must have had! Just another reason why I LOVE your family so much because you do things like this together! Poor T--I was laughing out loud when I read your story. I see he still has his pacifier--Jeryn does too, and I'm not sure when or how we are going to get it from him!
