Father's Day Camping Trip

It seemed like a good idea.  A long Father's Day weekend doing what he loves, camping in an RV, exposing the girls to the fine establishments Chattanooga has to offer.  That is, until a little furry friend decided to take up residence and keel over in our friends RV that we were supposed to borrow.  After many long hours of trying to remedy the situation, it was a no-go.  So we changed it up and headed to tent camp at Victoria Bryant State Park.  Just an hour or so away.  We hiked, fished, rode bikes on some very hilly roads, played on the playground, found some super fun rapids to play in, and just spent some good quality time together!  Of course, we also celebrated the best daddy ever!  We are thankful for all he does for us.  We are some lucky, lucky girls!

Gone to Iowa (and Ohio)

We officially kicked off our summer with a road trip to Des Moines, Iowa.  What's in Des Moines you ask?  Cousins!  Than and Jennifer have lived out there for a few years now and since we haven't been there, we decided to go check it out!  The kids had a great time playing together, dress up, slip n slide, smores, Sky Zone, movies...We even got to celebrate Andrew's 5th birthday!  Fun to the max!  Grammy and Grandpa came out too to join in on the fun.  They actually took the girls back to Ohio for the week while Ben and I headed back home to work on things around the house.  We are thankful for the time to get some stuff done and glad the girls had fun in Ohio, but we are even more glad that they are back home with us.  We missed those little sweet faces!

We saw a lot of this between Georgia and Iowa

Goofing off and getting some exercise in at a gas station stop

Fun with cousins!

Just a small taste of the girls fun in Ohio.  Baby cows, boats, cousins, dress up.  Not pictured, lots of family, more baby cows, horses, slumber parties, crafts and more!
