On the open road! Headed to the Black Forest Campground located in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains. 07.14.11
Jack and Riley's first order of business when we arrived at the campsite was to hunt for bugs. Their first find, a mammoth sized snail, didn't disappoint. (Am I the only one who thinks snails and slugs are actually kind of cute with their little antennae? That's probably why Heavenly Father decided I'd do well with so many boys, lol.)
Justin and Eddie taking a break after a long day of hiking and exploring.
Beckett's alert dog' look. :)
Happy to be out of the carrier and/or stroller for some exploring time at the fish hatchery.
Norah had Beckett laughing with a game of peek-a-boo.
Looking Glass Falls
Hot dogs, tin foil dinners, s'more's, and soda = successful camping trip.
Getting the troops prepared to be fed. This must be done with some expedience as between our two families the ratio of children to adults is 2:1 (well, almost... Johnston #4 will arrive in just a few short months making that an accurate statistic). And when the troops are hungry they show no mercy.
Cannonbaaaalllll!!!!
"Swimming? Meh - I'm good just chillin' in my stroller and watchin' the fishes. A perfect way to celebrate my 11 month birthday. :)"
Mommy snail and baby snail. Jack and Riley even made them a little home (the leaves are supposed to be a kind of 'nest').
Jackson and Riley discussing where to build the snail home. Decisions, decisions. :)
