Labor Day Weekend

What a fun weekend! Just ask Dustin...Saturday, we had hardly begun, and he was already so happy about our exciting weekend! We travelled up to Stillwater Saturday and enjoyed Eskimo Joe's...YUM! (We also delivered the couch frame that we sold about a month ago). My mom got to go with us--which we all loved--we had so much fun all packed into the truck! (Sorry about the quality of this pic, but it shows we were really there!)

Sunday, after church, we packed up and went to Red Rock Canyon in Hinton, OK.

We camped in a tent, hiked on two trails (and made our own!), and went fishing. The kids thought it was SO cool--the whole thing! We asked them today what was their favorite part, and all they could come up with was, "everything!" The pictures really say it all.....One of their favorite activities was playing in the dirt:Our tent is up!

Campfire, fishing, and sleeping in our tent! The kids were great--most of their time was spent climbing the wall behind our campsite--it was so neat because they would all help each other, and could basically do it on their own. They were being so big--it's sad they're growing up so fast, but we're enjoying it!

We had some nice tent neighbors on one side, it was a dad and 3 of his 5 boys, (he's a pastor at a Christian church--the kids played together and had fun), and some not so nice neighbors on the other side. I had to answer some tough questions from Jodee--like why does that mommy talk so mean? I felt so bad for those kiddos, and glad my kids had never heard people talk to their children like that before!

We really enjoyed God's beautiful world--what better way to do that than to go camping!
