A Great Weekend In The Mountains!

Camping was soooo much fun!!! For those of you that didn't know we went up in the mountains over the weekend to go camping with our church. Not only was it so much cooler (thank god) it was so busy and we all had a blast especially the kids (even the babies had a great time. We got up there on Friday afternoon and the kids immediately took off with friends but made it back to camp by 10ish the first night and by 1ish the last night. They had stuff planned for Abby and Noah who were just beside themselves with excitement. I really didn't see Nate all weekend he didn't even eat with us. Saturday morning came around and the whole camp was up before 7am ugh. Immediately Noah and Abby were playing with friends, well Noah was trying to escape into the wilderness (he loves the outside)and Bre and Nate were gone before I could give them instructions to be back for lunch. Somehow no one starved lol. However because I could bearly keep up I got very few pictures. But I do have great memories. There was alot planned for the kids but they ran off and did there own thing and I guess they went to the planned activies when they wanted too. Noah was so happy to be outside for hours at a time, that he would just scream when it was time to do something else. And when it was time to eat he would just fall asleep at the table because that would be the only time that he would slow down for the whole day. So needless to say he didn't eat very well all weekend. But once we would get up from the table he was on the go again just wanting to run and play and swing. He really liked the slip and slide too.
Breanna and I had a few minutes when no one was looking to slip away. So we hiked down to "The Gap" which is where they were to scared to go the night before(after dark) and had to turn around. It was nice to spend a little time with just her. We climbed up all the rocks (a small mountain) and when we got to the top the veiw was stunning. All around us were beautiful green pine trees and the air was clear. It was just wounderful. It was a much needed retreat!
Any way like I said I really didn't get any pictures but here are a few. Just know that we had a great time and it was a real experience to have had.
