so we took our family on our first camping trip - and i loved it! we had so much fun. but i don't think i'm going again in august - it was SO incredibly HOT! i don't think i've ever been so sweaty for so long. but here's a few pictures - i'll put more up later. :)

our very first tent...we loved it!!!


the view from the top of stone mountain - i did not hike up with the kids...we rode up the sky ride tram. :D and down as well HA!

my oh so pretty emily jane enjoying the view.

so - what do you think marie is going to do next? mischief and mayhem is my guess.

riding the sky tram down from the mountain. :)

marie's separate room in our tent. :) sleeping very soundly.

the other half of our tent - kids still sleeping at 8AM - they were do tired...but happy. :)

on the way to church one night we say a stretch SUV limo and eben's comment was: mommy! see that car! it is way fat! (or perhaps he meant phat-haha!!)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

eben: daddy? does God love spiderman?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

eben: mommy, you watch me and i'm going to point to the girl that i think i love. she's real cute!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

eben: is it going to take long to get to the park mommy?

me: nope. i'm taking a short cut.

(when we arrived) eben: mommy, i think that was a long cut.

this is marie just loving on her big brother - she is turning into such a little ham...loving making people laugh. i'll need to catch her playing peek a boo with herself - she does it all the time and cracks herself up - it is hilarious!
