This Diva Went Camping...

...and I have the photos to prove it!



Four women, eight children, one cabin (one bathroom), four air mattresses, cave exploring, fishing, a beautiful church at the end of a trail, unique worship, smores, banana boats, carmel popcorn, "spoons", "mafia", "scategories" & "taboo"....



....one absolutely AMAZING weekend!




The view from the front porch of our cabin...


All eight kiddos, on our way to the cave...


Outside the cave entrance...


Sweet Caraline and me...
My oldest son, Hayden, and me!

Hayden, crawling into a small space within the cave
(with his brand new shorts, I might add,
which are now ruined)....

Benjamin (my youngest) the Dare Devil...

Tickbite Trail...we didn't get any...

The kids standing outside the small church we found
at the end of the trail...this was my favorite find!

Inside the church...



On the bluff, outside the church...
Beautiful....

This was an outside worship area, we held our
very own church service here on Sunday morning...

Caraline...


Abby & Madi Sue, I love these girls!

We still had a LOT of fun, even during the rain...

Fishermen Abby!

Too cool...


What a great way to refresh and create memories with the most amazing people that God has placed within my life! God is good!

  1. Even in the smallest of living quarters we all had so much fun. Well...at 6 a.m. when LuAnn got up and started packing I was thinking, "did I do something to offend her cause she wants me UP!!??" LOL Just kidding...seriously this was a blast. Madi loves you, Riley loves you, Gavin loves your boys...I am happy we are friends, you're great. ;)

  3. Camping is not staying in a cabin!!! Camping is a tent or a pop up camper
