Happy Campers!

We went camping in the mountains this weekend and had a great time!  We packed up and left Saturday morning after breakfast.  Our camp site was right on the river and as soon as we pulled in, Drew and Anna Kate went straight for the water.  They had a lot of fun wading  the water, exploring the camp site, watching the tubers, eating all kids of junk food, and hanging out with Uncle Aaron, Megan, Kris, and Paula.  Papaw Hubert and Mamaw Katherine stopped by about 5:00 and picked Anna & Drew up and brought them home. I didn't think it would be a very restful night trying to get them to sleep in a tent so Mamaw & Papaw spent the night with them here at out house.  Sunday, us "big kids" went tubing so Drew and Anna Kate went to DotDot and Grandaddy's house for the day.  Aunt Ashley came over to play with them too!  We picked them up right after dinner and although they were happy to see us, I don't think they missed us too much!

 Drew and Anna got out of the car and went straight to the water and got in. We didn't even have a chance to put their swim diapers and swim suits on them. They loved it!

 They liked the running water and all the rocks.

 Drew throwing rocks. He was all wet because he stepped on a rock wrong and fell and went under. Oops!  He recovered quickly and wasn't scared afterward.

 Looking at the fish with Megan.

 Helping Kris set up the tents.  He is so helpful!

 Welcoming committee!  They would both go running and stand at the edge of the river and wave and say "hi" to all the tubers as they went by. Drew even blew kisses to a few of them!

 Just hanging out on the rocks with Uncle Aaron.

 Drew really loved the water and Anna Kate really loved the snacks!

 Our version of lunch.  They were so dirty and ate nothing nutritious for lunch.  I had to just let go of trying to get them clean (which was hard!) and be happy that they at least ate something.

Sunday Kris and John Clay got up and made us breakfast before we packed up and went tubing. 

It was such a fun weekend and hopefully, we can do again in the future!  And maybe Drew and Anna Kate can spend the night too next time.
