May love and laughter light your days, and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours, wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons bring the best to you and yours!

Camping

We went camping for the first time with the kids. (We finally used the "new" tent we bought 8 years ago.) We joined Dan's brother's family, Dominic, Chris and Kayla. Although the weather was hot and humid, it didn't damper our enthusiasm for the great outdoors. In fact, we are planning on additional camping adventures this summer.
Putting up our tent is as easy as 1, 2, 3.





The campfire was the center of our campsite. We made hamburgers, hotdogs and s'mores. Yummy!












The kids loved being outside. They learned about various things like honey suckle and box turtles.




After we put pajamas on the kids, they wanted to go to a nearby playground.

Here, the kids are nestled all snug in their sleeping bags.

We hiked to see Tunnel Falls.
