Camping

We went on a weekend camping trip with our good friends the Hammers, Flints and Chalks.  We went up to Little Deer Creek above Midway and though the road was a little rough for all our vans to get up there, we made it! It was a beautiful spot right in the middle of the mountains and a perfect getaway.  The kids all got along so well and we loved being together as a group.  We played in the pond, ate good food, roasted marshmallows, hid under the canopies during the rainstorm, played games and enjoyed the beautiful place we were in.  
 The Chalks brought their 4 wheelers and it was the highlight of the weekend to be able to ride them.  Josh took the kids on a long, fun ride and obviously they had a great time.  
We ended up leaving the night before we planned because there was a big rain storm headed our way.  We decided to pack up and leave instead of sleep in the rain and try and pack up in the morning.  We all made it out in the nick of time.  Just as we were pulling our vehicles out, the rain started coming and didn't stop.  Lots of lightning and loud thunder came with the rain and it was awesome to be in the mountains and hear how loud it could be!
